Remove NVIDIA Telemetry (and slim down display driver)

[KaptanJackSparrow]

By the way, I'm looking for a replacement for the Corsair icue, for configuring macros and lighting.

Same, I've got 2 of their corsair commander fan controllers in my system and a Razor Keyboard I would love to ditch the ecosystem. >.> they each add so many processes....

NVCleanstall can rebuild a new installer for you, on the last screen.
There are poorly documented unattended options, but you can search NVIDIA's forums to get a list of them.

They are as follows -s -noreboot -clean

-s = Silent Install (this includes the Geforce experience which no one wants).
-noreboot = Don't prompt to reboot
- clean = Clean install, it resets all the settings to default.

And yes they are poorly documented. considering how essential a Video driver is and that there is only two companies that make Videocard chipsets you'd think that wanting to do an unattended install would be less of an unusual and exotic idea.

After you repackage the installer, GeForce Experience crap can be omitted. I think NVIDIA deliberately hides the silent options, because they want you to watch the partner ads while it's installing.

Does anyone know if it's important and what the driver for this component does?
Platform Controllers and Framework / ACPI\NVDA0820

This is for power management on the newest GPU's for Dynamic Boost or WhisperMode. It controls power draw to maximize performance (Boost), or reduces to slow fan speeds (Whisper). If you don't have these features, don't worry about it.
