1. Restart Your System
One of the easiest way to quickly resolve any issue in Windows is to restart the system, so you should do it once then try to update or install the driver again.
2. Download and Install the GeForce Game Ready Driver
Instead of updating the driver using the GeForce Experience, you can directly download latest version of Game Ready Driver and install it. This can help to avoid the installation can’t continue issue.
1. Go to the Download Game Ready Drivers page.
2. Choose Desktop or laptop, depending on your system.

2. Download it, install it, and then restart the system.
3. Now open the GeForce Experience application, then click on DRIVERS and choose CHECK FOR UPDATES, and if any update is found, do it by clicking on EXPRESS INSTALLATION.

To do that, search for Windows updates, open it, click on Check for Updates, wait until it gets updated, and then restart your PC. After doing that, open the GeForce Experience and then try to update Game Ready Driver.
