Earlier this year DxO wrote to some PhotoLab users about instability with certain NVIDIA drivers on Windows 11 during AI masking and denoising, and the thread that followed shows people landing in very different places after trying different drivers: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/threads/nvidia-drivers-and-dxo-photolab-9-on1.4831069/

Update and driver trouble has come up in forum threads about several other editors this year too.

How do you handle updates to the software you depend on? Do you install straight away, wait a few weeks, or keep an older installer and a known good driver on disk in case a new build misbehaves? Has an update ever cost you a working day, and what would you want from the developer when it happens?
