    No no, no SHA-2 package. At least I do not have it.
    With 7-zip "Open Archive" on 475.14-desktop-win8-win7-64bit-international.exe, extract it to a directory and then copy contents of github 475.14_fix into it (replace files when prompted), then delete "Telemetry" directory.
    Then install from that same directory/folder by running setup.exe. It really should work.

    Yes, i did the same, but the installation stop because of sha-2, i do not know why, this is so odd, the only way is to disable the signature verification, then it work, like the other ones already modded linked here.

    But as i said before is not a big deal, i can disable the signature verification via gpedit and keep it on ignore, no message appear on the desktop claim i'm under test mode. My win 7 is genuine and activated with a key i bought on a legit key website.

    But again, i do not use the pc to play games, so even a 2060 super is fine as upgrade, unless there are not downsides in keep the signature verification off.

    edit
    Bought this card in the end as an upgrade for my win 7 system (found it new on ebay), RTX 2060 super, problem solved, nvidia drivers 441.41 sha-1 perfect, no sha-2 no pain, will buy a 3060 for my Win 10 LTSB 2016 backup pc this summer when new batch of 3060 12Gb will be released (i read so on some tech websites), mods there working better. :D

    I know right, but tell this to nvidia that stopped to make drivers for this version, or worse, they block drivers to be installed on this specific version.

    Let me just build on this: M$ has always been the big problem.
