DX11 Driver Bug, nvwgf2umx.dll and D3D11_SAMPLER_DESC

I am attempting to write a graphics engine using OpenGL and DirectX 11. I am facing an issue with nvwgf2umx.dll in my solution as shown in the photo attached, I cannot create a D3D11_SAMPLER_DESC structure and the fault is with the graphics driver.

I installed GeForce Game Ready Driver Version 451.67 with the ‘clean install’ item checked and updated the NVIDIA driver in my Windows Device Manager but the issue still persists. I’ve went through several forums and no information of use has come up.
