    How do I remove the pre-installed components/apps for tablet PC and Xbox One? I don't need tablet components on my PC, and I have no plan to get an Xbox One.

    How do I remove uninstalled devices?

    The AMD drivers were already removed thoroughly. This is not a problem with AMD or the drivers. This is absolutely a problem with Windows 10, Microsoft's problem.

    The issue is not removing drivers. The issue is Windows Update is downloading an update for hardware that does not exist. Windows 10 somewhere still has a record of the hardware profile, and when I fully clean out the AMD drivers, Windows Update detects
    no drivers installed for the cataloged hardware.

    Again, this is NOT a driver issue. This is an issue with Windows and its hardware detection and cataloging systems and how Windows Update responds.

    How do I remove uninstalled devices?

    Let me assure you that Microsoft is not keeping a record of what video card you have so it can feed the information to Windows Update.

    Windows Update scans your computer in order to know what drivers to offer. Which means that Windows Update is finding evidence of an AMD video card on your computer.

    How do I remove/uninstalled components?

    I don't believe that these are full-fledged apps/components. They take minimal storage capacity (couple hundred megabytes each) and are more akin to placeholders locked in by Microsoft. If you go to System/apps and features, you can scroll down the listed apps and click on the offending apps. If they are placeholders the option to Move and/or Uninstall will be grayed out. If the uninstall option is present, go-to-town on them.
