Windows 10: How do I completely remove a driver and stop auto-reinstallation?

I'm trying to uninstall a driver for Android called ADB Interface (winusb.inf). It's not compatible with my phone so I tried to install a driver compatible my phone but Windows wouldn't let me because according to it the currently installed driver is already updated.

I tried to uninstall it from Device Manager but Windows just reinstall it whenever I plug in my phone. I found that you can permanently uninstall it if you check this option:




But my PC doesn't have that option.

I'm using Windows 10 Home.

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.


Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

 

how do you delete an auto added email in Win 10 mail

Hi Larry,

Outlook builds the Auto-Complete List by saving the names and addresses of recipients in email messages you've previously sent. As the list grows, so does the number of suggestions that are offered as possible entries. You can trim the list by removing one
or more recipients, or you can turn off Auto-Complete List completely. To do so, you may follow instructed steps from this link:
Remove addresses from AutoSuggest/Auto-Complete

How to completely remove Realtek audio drivers?


I'm using build 10240, and in the first install, it installed the Realtek audio drivers.

The problem with these drivers is that they completely mess up the sound in my headphones.

Anyways, I've tried:

• Uninstalling the audio manager in control panel
• Deleting the oem#.inf
• Uninstalling the drivers in Device Manager

None of these work. When I uninstall it, the driver is just reinstalled when my computer reboots. Is there a way to remove it?
