How to update WDDM 1.2 driver to 2.0 or later ???

WDDM support status is defined by the graphic card (hardware) that you are using, not the software. your hardware needs to be able to support WDDM 2+
you need to use a newer graphic card.
by the way, the latest WDDM is version 3 which is available in latest Windows insider version.
hope that helps

Your statement is NOT TRUE!
WDDM is Windows Display Driver Model, which requires that a graphics hardware vendor supply a paired user-mode display driver (UMD) and kernel-mode display driver (KMD).
The key phrase here is "hardware vendor supply" - this is what hardware vendors with the help of Microsoft do not want to do for LEGACY hardware/cards! and you probably know why - $$$, yes, go and buy new hardware (GPU, notebooks) etc.
