Why is the system update requiring to remove my Nvidia driver?

I had spent quite a bit of time trying to make sure I had the Nvidia driver that works with my 1070ti after upgrading my OS to Fedora 44 (KDE). (It needs to be a 580xx driver)

I already had a kernal update that didn't mess with the driver. Why would this system update be removing this now?

I'm a bit worried it's going to cause me a lot of trouble getting the correct driver if I do this system update.

Edit:

It's solved now, thanks Redditors!

The reason is because it's pushing out the driver for the older version of Fedora that was saved as a backup.

I thought that the uninstalling I did after updating from 43 to 44 would've removed it, but apparently not.
