How to install NVIDIA proprietary driver in LMDE3?

Hello.
The standard driver does not suit. - Constant defects when scrolling, as well as in any dynamic video. I decided to install the original driver from the manufacturer's website.
I do the following:

  1. I switch to the text console mode (CTRL+ALT+F1).
  2. # init 3
  3. # service lightdm stop
  4. # ./path/to/nvidia/driver

Then a dialog box prompts you to disable the standard nouveau driver. If you agree, the installer creates the /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf file:
# generated by nvidia-installer
blacklist nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0

Then it is suggested to restart the system. After rebooting and re-launching the installer, the following information appears in the dialog box: ... installation not completed ... the disable-nouveau.conf file already exists ... the nouveau driver is not disabled ... contact your system administrator
... Unfortunately, I am unable to take a screenshot of this window.
I ask for help. How to install proprietary driver?

Debian is the only distribution that packages NVIDIA's proprietary driver.
Include non-free Debian repository, line for /etc/apt/sources.list :

deb http://ftp.ru.debian.org/debian/ unstable main non-free contrib

We update the list of available packages and install the package driver, it has a dependency cleaning of tails from the one supplied by the vendor (during installation, everything will be asked):
#apt update
#apt install nvidia-driver
