    How do I prevent Windows Update from automatically installing AMD Graphics Drivers?


    Windows 11 Home - Windows Update automatically installs drivers for AMD Graphics cards. These drivers are worse than the AMD drivers and they continually cause my system to freeze. How do I prevent this? I already said "No" in device installation settings. I don't have access to group policy in this Windows version.

    :)

    Windows Update deletes AMD graphics drivers

    Hello. I have a Lenovo Yoga 6 with a Ryzen 7 5700U CPU. I want to install AMD Radeon software to get the latest AMD graphics drivers. I am able to install the graphics drivers from AMD fine. However, once I do, Radeon software stops working since it says the driver is not supported. I look in Windows Update history to see that Windows Update installed an older AMD graphics driver over the one that AMD installed. I also noticed that the screen brightness slider is gone after. I want to have the latest AMD graphics driver, not the Windows Update one.

    I tried going into the system properties settings and selected the choice to not install manufacturer drivers. I also used DDU with the setting to prevent Windows Update from installing it. I then reinstalled the AMD driver. Windows Update immediately went and installed over it again. I can try to pause Windows Update, but I do not want to not get other updates just so I do not have to use older graphics drivers. Is there anything I can do to have the correct graphics drivers?

    Why cannot prevent W10 from automatically installing updates?

    Why does W10 keep automatically installing my Nvidia graphics drivers?

    I have done all the 3 steps here:
    https://windows101tricks.com/disable...river-updates/

    to try and prevent windows from automatically installing device drivers, but every time I uninstall the Nvidia graphics drivers and the computer restarts, Windows will always automatically install a driver for it.

    This is making me fume!

    Could someone please tell me is there another way to actually stop Windows 10 Pro 1809 form automatically installing device drivers?
