I have actively avoided doing this for a while , but now I need to run CUDA-dependent OpenCV Code on a Windows Machine. So it's time to bite the bullet and get it done. Want to go for a ride? It will be fun, I promise! Background This is being run on a Gigabyte Motherboard with a 10th-Generation i7 CPU, 64GB RAM and Windows 11 (Release).
