I don't need gaming drivers and have not tested.  I continue to use v.416.81.

I can confirm: This works!! I'm now using the latest nVidia Drivers, 431.60, with full Stereoscopic 3D support, including all prior options in nVidia Control Panel.

Tested 3D Blu-ray ISO in PowerDVD 19 Ultra. 3D Working flawlessly. 

I did need to deviate from the original instructions and want to provide a few tips to those looking for the same:
  • I strongly suggest *NOT* to use DDU for removing the drivers, as suggested by the Guide. DDU is a very powerful and highly destructive software, especially in Safe Mode. It can really screw up your Registry and cause more headaches, as it did in my case. I spent the better part of my day restoring my system from the destruction caused by DDU. Just use "Uninstall" from the Control Panel. It is more than sufficient. 
  • Like many users, Windows 10 inadvertently converted my Graphics Driver from "Standard" to "DCH". You cannot use the instructions or links provided in the Guide if you have a DCH driver installed. You cannot install Standard over DCH, or DCH over Standard. I had to use a completely different resource from the Internet to successfully remove "DCH" Graphics Driver from my system. Once this was done, I was able to install the Standard drivers. 
So to recap my steps:
  1. Uninstall current nVidia Graphics Driver from Control Panel. Remove all nVidia related software using Uninstall & Reboot
  2. If you have DCH Package installed (Click on "System Information" in nVidia Control Panel to find out), you will need to completely remove the DCH Package (You will need to be Offline - Disable Network Adapter while doing all of this). I'll post the link to these instructions here later, or just google it. 
  3. Install Standard Driver which contains the 3DVision package
  4. Install latest Standard Driver overwriting the previous installation (Make sure you have Copied 3DVision package to this driver's folders)
  5. Use FVIE software to change the version of the two files mentioned in the guide to the latest version - "3160" in my case. It's the last 4 digits of the version, example "431.60" gives us "3160".
  6. Reboot
That's it! Stereoscopic 3D becomes part of your latest driver and works flawlessly.
