There is no specific APU driver. To expound on what Wolfshadw has mentioned, the drivers will be the same as what you would be using with the corresponding discreet devices, so there will be the standard HAL for the CPU which should be installed during the initial Windows installation, plus a graphics driver for the graphics portion of the device, plus any ancillary support systems that Windows doesn't already have generic driver support for, should be installed by the chipset driver package.

And guys i forgot o ask. I used the amd support utility to uninstall my amd software. Does these include uninstall the driver from the intergrated graphics? If so. Can I still reinstall it from dowloading the apu driver?

Again, there is no APU specific driver. Download the drivers for your chipset and graphics device matching what is built into your "APU", and you should have what you need.

Also, AMD no longer refers to the Ryzen based CPUs with integrated graphics as APUs, not that it makes much difference other than for clarity.

Follow the link that Wolfshadw gave you. You should see a "Manually select your driver section" which contains a 4 step process. Pick the correct item from each of the 4 drop-down boxes, and you'll be shown the correct driver / drivers.

Click on the link I provided.
On the right side of the page, under Manually Select Your Driver, enter the following:

Select the type of product that you have:
APU / Processor with Graphics

Select the product family your product belongs to:
Desktop APU / Processor with Graphics

Select your product:
A-Series APUs w/R7 Graphics

Select the supported operating system that you have:
Select your operating system and click the display results button.

Depending on your operating system, it may offer one or two downloads. When I selected Windows 10 64-bit it offered:

1) Radeon Software (which I believe to be the whole package you're looking for)
2) AMD Minimal Setup (which is probably just the driver)
