Windows 10: Hide or Show Windows Updates in Windows 10

Did exactly what IownAmoneyPit mentioned in his first page post
created one folder in Program Files named Windows Update - Show or Hide ( contains .Cab file) then created a shortcut (Dektop) with the same name which I then placed in the "CrogramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs

Windows Update - Show or Hide folder shows in All Apps but when i click folder it opens Program Files\Windows Update - Show or Hide folder then i have click .cab file.
is there any way i can directly open it from All apps like other program?

Sorry for my Bad English...............

 

Hello Mart,

You'll need to create a shortcut of the .cab file first, then add that shortcut to All apps. *Smile

From another Junior Member:
You can stop Windows updating a particular driver by configuring policies as below:

Run "gpedit.msc" --> Computer Configuration --> Administrative Templates --> System --> Device Installation --> Device Installation Restrictions --> (Double Click) Prevent installation of devices that match any of these device IDs or Prevent installation of devices not described by other policy settings --> Select "Enabled" and perform the necessary changes.
Detailed procedure:

p.s. To allow Windows to install/update drivers for this device again, perform the above and set it back to "Not Configured".

 

hi
i can't hide nvidia drivers
i used the tutorial Enable or Disable Automatic Updates using Group Policy

but can't really hide nvida drivers in the updates

 

Hello drugo, *Smile

Could you provide more details on what you mean by "can't really hide" the drivers?

Did you uninstall the driver you wanted to hide first?

 

hi Brink
i haven't installed the drivers via windows updates ,i downloaded the last from the nvia home page and installed from there

when i run the tool -> hide
i have this list kb3081438 ,kb3087916 kb890830 and nvidia drivers
i check nviad driver to hide
but when i run this tool again nvidia drivers is still there ,i tried to reboot after hiding it without luck
in short i run the tool i hide it ->i close the tool, i re-run the tool , and in the hide list there is still nvidia drivers *Sad

 

Do the NVIDIA drivers still show up in Windows Update afterwards?

If not, then they are hidden, until a new version is released next.

 

yes
and they are 2 items

may delete the folder Code: c:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\[/quote] help ?

 

I want to get my drivers from the manufacturer's site, not from Windows Update. Why can't MS grasp this and permit us to configure Win 10 so we stop getting driver updates from Windows?

This is the main reason I am not letting go of Win 7 and continue using it as my default OS.

 

help ?[/quote] I have the same problem with nvidia and samsung drivers.
I checked in the application to hide it, but i show them again in windows update.
I run the application many times but with no result.
Any idea?

How can i disable search for drivers updates in windows updates?

 

hi
have you delete the content of the folder?

Right click This PC, Properties. Advanced System Settings. Hardware tab. Device Installation Settings. No, let me choose what to do
hope it help you!

 

This folder? c:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\ No i haven't delete it. This solve the problem?

I have this settings ok.
