IGCIT Driver Switch

This tool aims to make easier to test multiple driver versions for regressions/issues

Requirements

  • Windows 10 1909 or higher / Windows 11
  • 7th generation Intel GPU or above (legacy, Xe, Arc)

How to use

Note: This program requires Admin rights for drivers restore and load operations

Note 2: If you load a driver version higher than the one currently installed, the new driver will replace it

Note 3: Downgrades will not replace your installed driver and you can switch back with the Restore driver button (in some cases, multiple loads in sequence may overwrite your installed driver with the loaded one)

Load a driver:

  • Place your Intel drivers packages ( .exe ) in intel_drivers folder
  • Run IGCIT Driver Switch
  • Select a driver version from the list
  • Click Load Driver to load the selected driver ( your screen may flicker during the operation )

Currently loaded driver is unpacked in extracted_tmp folder.

Restore your driver:

  • Run IGCIT Driver Switch
  • Click Restore Driver to restore your driver to the one installed in your OS ( your screen may turn black for a few seconds )
