k never mind found the problem this game uninstalls gpu driver every time i run it so its not worth the headache every ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ time i run the game, it uninstalls geforce, Nvidia controll panel and all that so im done with this game

There was a somewhat recent Nvidia driver release that would uninstall itself daily. It has since been fixed, but it sounds like you are having the same issue. Do you have the most recent drivers? Have you tried rolling back drivers to something you know works?

I would suggest downloading the drivers directly from the Geforce website, and not the Geforce app. https://www.geforce.com/drivers

It's highly unlikely that Insurgency is the main cause for this.

k just installed newest driver (2nd time) and tried to launch again and this time windows settings gave me a notivfacation saying the display driver wont start and to try updating windows... okay so what do i do? i check for a windows update and sure enough there isnt one, so i check my driver settings and my gtx 1050 driver is corrupt, only thing i did was attempt to launch it again, its half way installing driver again and after that idk what to do

I haven't heard of anyone else having this issue with Insurgency specifically, so it's very likely that it's a problem with your computer. Are you certain it only happens with Insurgency?

Other than updating or re-installing windows, the next thing I would suggest is checking for incompatabilities with any antivirus you might have, and doing a full scan of your computer.

I'm afraid I can't help you much more than that. You may have to do some Google-fu to find a fix. Try searching for other people that have had issues with that driver version or windows updates.

dont have antiviruse enabled, and yes its only with insurgency

K I FOUND THE SOLUTION!
go to launch options
add: "-w 1680 -h 1050" (or ur resolution that is just mine)
save
run and never have to install ur gpu driver every damn time u try to launch it when having this problem

Dunno why it was merged but here is solution what worked for me.

!!!Important!!! - Download driver from geforce website and save it somewhere where u can find it! U won't be able to access internet in safe mode.

Friend told me to use program called DDU, it's to clean your drivers and disable Microsofts Basic Render driver. U have to run it in safe mode (press windows button and search for msconfig, launch settings and run in safe mode (minimal), then launch the program DDU and i would suggest clicking to remove cache,files and such (4th option) and then clicking clean and reset), don't worry about being in low resolution, then u just click exe file from geforce to install driver and then reset again just for safety, and u should be good to go.

Don't wanna be rude but f*ck this microsoft render sh*t. Hope it helps

To clarify:

Clean Installation of Graphics Drivers

NOTE: You will be losing all of your graphics card's settings, make sure you have taken note of them beforehand.

Step 1) Go to your graphics card manufacturer's website (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) and download the appropriate, up-to-date driver for your integrated or dedicated graphics card. Save it somewhere you can easily find it.

Step 2) Download the latest version of Display Driver Uninstaller from here[www.wagnardsoft.com]. Save it somewhere you can easily find it.

Step 3) Restart your computer and boot Windows into safe mode; 'Minimal' or just 'safe mode' will work fine. The method for this varies by your version of Windows, so you will need to use Google[lmgtfy.com].

Step 4) Once you're in safe mode, open DDU. It's a self-extracting archive, so just click 'extract' and a new folder should be placed in the same directory as the file.

Step 5) Navigate to the newly created DDU folder and open Display Driver Uninstaller.exe. I recommend using it to disable Windows automatically updating graphics drivers. You should also go into the options and check all of the removal options.

Step 6) Once you've changed the settings, go back to the main screen and click 'Clean and restart'. The program will do the work for you, so LEAVE IT ALONE.

Step 7) Restart the computer. It should boot normally. YOUR RESOLUTION WILL BE VERY LOW, DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THIS.

Step 8) Find the driver you downloaded earlier and install it. Your resolution should return to normal at some point during the installation.

Step 9) Restart your computer again, your drivers should now be fully functional and up-to-date.

I know there are many discussions about this issue however none of them worked for me. Everytime i try to load insurgency it displays engine error and says i'm using microsoft's driver. I have reinstalled the newst invidia driver 3 times today and it still doesn't work. Plz help.

specs:
cpu: ryzen 2200g
gpu:gtx 1060 6gb

k the fix i found (sorry for such a late reply i hope yall fixed it before this but just in case) u have to FORCE the game to run in ur resolution, i dont remeber exsactly how i did it im 99% sure it was threw the launch options, but this happens to me often on alot of different games because i swap monitors often, hope this helps if ur still stuck
