Whenever you have the latest Hotfix driver installed (451.85 currently) EnvyUpdate still tells you your driver is out of date and prompts you to download a older version (451.67 currently).

Oh, interesting...
Can you tell me which GPU you're using?

I don't quite know where I should get info about hotfix drivers from. Visiting the website and trying to download drivers still gives me 451.67... Is there a page that shows me the newest hotfix driver version?

For now I will fix this by comparing driver versions as a number. So using a newer driver than the website states will not alert.

I couldn't find a way of detecting the most recent hotfix version. EnvyUpdate therefore will only alert when new "stable" drivers are released.
It will not alert because of a "new" driver version when using a newer driver than detected online.
