    Maybe they were lost during the hack?

    Yeah I spent like 5 mins searching for that thread until I finally gave up and created on

    Then a mode edited the title and added the prefix [Discussion] so I guess they approve the thread.

    The previous thread got lost in the last mishap which couldn't be recovered.

    I not recommend to disable or remove it since you want good drivers and sending meta-data doesn't really compromise anything.

    You also not need to touch anything in the folder, after the installation you simply can go to the task schedule and disable the task, which would be the better option, because if you remove something it gets overwritten the next time. Disabling it will not be changed after a new driver update as long you not delete the tasks.

    Or simply block

    Code:
    C:\program files (x86)\nvidia corporation\update core\nvtmrep.exe
    The thing is telemetry task never gets in usage as long certain things not happend, e.g. GeForce Experience must be installed and used. Otherwise the .exe never does anything.

    It's not an older driver, it's today's driver, this is a different branch. Newer versions number doesn't always indicates newer, it's depending on the branch. For example when the 378.49 came out, the HD audio driver and Experience included packages where already outdated.

    This is
    02/24/2017, 21.21.13.7698 .. while your mentioned driver is 02/23/2017, 21.21.13.7877 .. the last number only indicate the internal compiled tree. And of course there are different since there exist legacy, game and Vulkan ones. The Vulkan Runtime Libaries are also now 1.0.42 (from yesterday compiled).
