    Disabling WU will disable Drivers Update also?


    My PC is a Production Machine and I do not want to lose time with broken updates, so I decided to completely disable the Windows Update in Services.
    Will this also Disable the Drivers Updates by means of the Online Search and Install?
    Thank you

    :)

    Windows 10 unneeded updates

    These would continue cropping up and it indicates something isn't right.I would suggest you to disable driver updates through WU and check if the same thing happens again.

    How to disable driver updates on Windows 10 Home x64 1511?

    Thanks for responding.

    Solution from your link worked to some extent - when I turned back the two methods I mentioned before to default, WU installed the unwanted update again, although it was hidden in wushowhide app. Only after disabling those two methods again it worked.

    1) One curious thing is that the wushowhide app shows in available updates, a few of them, however they don't pop in the WU even with everything set to default.

    2) Is is the present compilation of W10 that disallows disabling automatic driver updates that worked for me before or may some system files be corrupted?

    3) Is there a way to report a newer driver for particular device or a driver not working at all? I've got DVB-T tuner for which WU installs really old driver, which doesn't work neither with W8.1 nor 10.
