  1. How to block windows 11 from trying to change my display drivers?


    Hello, I need windows 11 to stop trying to "update" my AMD drivers by installing an older version. I already installed the AMD software and it updated my drivers. I tried deleting the files from C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download. I tried using the group policy editor to disable drivers from updates, and I tried using the Show or hide updates troubleshooter, and all with no use.What could be the issue? And what other solutions do I have??? This getting frustrating as I need the latest drivers for my amd graphics. Please help me stop this madness.

    :)
