Here is how to remove nvidias display driver and remove telemetry. I found this topic online that said Nvidia added telemetry to its driver packages and how to slim it down. I didnt save the webpage or bookmark the page so i cannot credit the OP.
I have used the following driver package - NVIDIA-390.77-W7-64bit.exe, for an Asus GeForce GT710 1GB graphics card. I am not a gamer and only need a basic display driver. Look at the attached screen grab. The left hand side is the full extracted package. The right hand side is the package after it has been slimmed down. Keep only the packages on the slimmed down folder. You can run setup.exe from the slimmed down folder and the installer still runs fine.
