Microsoft has announced a new Windows feature called 'Cloud-Initiated Driver Recovery (CIDR)'
https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/hardware-dev-center/introducing-cloud-initiated-driver-recovery-for-windows-update/4519075
This feature allows PCs experiencing issues to remotely roll back faulty drivers to a previously working version. Furthermore, this process can be completed without any user intervention or OEM involvement. While it sounds like a magical solution to long-standing Windows Update problems, its real-world effectiveness remains to be seen. CIDR only applies to drivers distributed through Windows Update.

CIDR is currently undergoing validation testing and is scheduled to automatically support the Hardware Dev Center posting process starting in September.
