Uninstall vs. a "rollback"

[kris44dad]

I had driver problem recently (Win 10 Home).  My first correction was to uninstall the driver and check the option to delete the driver files. I restarted, and everything worked fine.  The bad driver later re-installed itself. The second time, I tried a "rollback". So far, the driver remains and the problem has not resurfaced. Is there something more "permanent" about a rollback vs. the uninstall and delete option?  I'm hoping the rollback will "stick" until I can manually install a patch from the manufacturer.

Uninstall... uninstalls the driver, so then it needs to install one again and it'll be the lastest that's currently offered. Rollback is explicitly "I want you to go back to the previous one you were using".

I understand that, I'm referring to the "permanency" of a rollback vs.an uninstall. At this point, I'm assuming it makes little difference. Having said that, I wonder... Windows has not re-installed the "bad driver", as it did when I used the uninstall method. So I'm wondering if Windows is more hesitant to update a driver that was intentionally rolled back by the user.
