Trust, Safety & Security

Transparency is key when dealing with system-level utilities. Here is everything you need to know about DDU's safety and integrity.

Official Origin & Developer

Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is developed and maintained by Wagnardsoft. This website serves as a comprehensive resource, guide, and community hub for DDU users. We are dedicated to providing accurate, up-to-date information about the software.

We always encourage users to verify file integrity using the checksums provided on our Download page.

Is DDU Safe? (Antivirus Warnings)

DDU is a powerful utility that modifies the Windows Registry and deletes system files related to drivers. Because of this deep system access, some antivirus programs may flag it as a "Potentially Unwanted Program" (PUP) or a false positive threat.

This is expected behavior for this type of tool. DDU is not malware. It does not contain adware, spyware, or viruses.

Best Practice:

  • Download only from trusted sources.
  • Verify the SHA-256 checksum of the downloaded file.
  • Create a System Restore Point before running the tool.

Usage Policy & Disclaimer

DDU is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. While it is rigorously tested and widely used, modifying system drivers always carries a small risk.

User Responsibility

  • You are responsible for backing up your data.
  • You acknowledge that using DDU in Normal Mode carries more risk than Safe Mode.
  • We are not responsible for any system instability resulting from misuse of the tool.

Community & Support

DDU has a vibrant community of users on forums like Guru3D and Reddit. The tool's development is supported by user feedback and bug reports.

If you encounter a bug, please report it to the official Wagnardsoft forums to help improve the software for everyone.
