Hello Jace,

This is a misleading message. We just found out why this was popping up with Microsoft's help.

The driver is not removed.
There was a migration blocker we asked to be added in the OS in the past (from Win7 to Win10 Anniversary Update)
DisplayLinkUI.exe is triggering this message and is deleted. This has zero impact on displays as this executable on this OS version does not interact with the driver or the screens.

We will be renaming the file, and the message will stop popping up during OS version upgrades.
Most won't see the message as they use Windows Update which doesn't deploy that executable.

To sum up, you can ignore that message, it's not removing the driver.

Kind regards,
Alban
