Windows 10: Driver WUDFRd failed to load

My laptop has started suddenly crashing not too long ago, very usually it crashes without a blue screen and instead the screen freezes, my mouse disconnects, and it starts to horribly and repeatedly disturb the audio leading to much shock on my part. After doing some digging I found the errors in my event viewer within a few seconds of every crash the devicesCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1903&SUBSYS_09CE1028&REV_02\3&11583659&0&20PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_15E8&SUBSYS_09D11028&REV_06\EEAD7128C7B3020000and HID\Vid_8087&Pid_0AC2\6&6c900b1&0&0000will all fail to load

WUDFRd Driver Failed to Load

Usually this is a Kernel-Pnp message telling you that WUDFRd failed to load a device.
ex:
The driver \Driver\WUDFRd failed to load for the device USB\VID_138A&PID_003D
or
The driver \Driver\WUDFRd failed to load for the device ACPI\HPQ6000\3&b1bfb68&0.

so first thing is to see what device it could not load.

 

The driver \Driver\WUDFRd failed to load for the device


Full event error: The driver \Driver\WUDFRd failed to load for the device {C5A047D8-CB5B-40E9-B9E3-316AB06B5A18}\WirelessKeyboardFilter`

Driver environment:
Windows 10 x64 desktop
I have a wireless Microsoft mouse
I do not have a Microsoft wireless keyboard
I have the associated transceiver that should work for both (if installed)

This problem started when my Microsoft wireless mouse driver was updated to version 1.0.102.0 (dated 3/16/2016).
This driver update also appears to be responsible for a few other device errors as well:









I believe this new driver assumes you have a wireless keyboard (without checking) and just tries to load a driver for it.

My temporary fix is/was to rollback the driver to the previous Microsoft version 10.0.10586.0 (dated 6/21/2006):









Anyone else run across this condition or have a known solution using the latest driver?

Thanks,

Hi again,

So re-installed the driver, but I am still getting the warnings on my Event Viewer. There were also 3 other similar warnings that I mentioned, so I'll post them in the reply here. Maybe there is a pattern?
