I also have had enough of th insider its deleting graphics software for nvidia ,,i am using an av receiver i could not get the dolby and 4k upgrading to work due to windows removing sound and software i ahd paid for that was not cheap..its the last time i listen to one of the advisors on tech support who said i would always have up to date computer and woulld benefit updates that take avoer an hour to install ...now i want to opt out and the only way is to reinstall windows again from scratch...if nit did not remove sound and graphic drivers i would not mind so much
i dont want to use microsot display settings i dont find them user friendly at all

Hi,
the truth is these problems are all normal and expected in insider program, that's the whole point of insider program, to find problems, report them via Feedbacks to Microsoft and then they will get solved.
if you're having a problem that is too severe then you can easily fresh install Windows 10 and use the stable build without any problem.
I've been on fast ring for 1 year straight, I have AMD graphic card newly upgraded to Radeon VII, Windows update does not uninstall it after each build but even if it did i would just reinstall it quickly.
you can also use group policy to block driver installation for a certain device. let me know if you want to know more about this way.
by the way you can grab a free copy of Windows 10 stable from here:
