    How to stop windows from updating drivers?


    Before any generic response comes to annoy me even more than windows's **** update policy, i have selected "no" in device installation settings. Nothing happened. I have disabled anything related to windows update handling drivers in the registry, nothing happened. At the time of writing this, i have disabled windows's garbage update completely. But the huge problem is, i need the microsoft store because OEMs decided it was a good move to put NECESSARY system applications there. Means if i want to update these apps, i'm screwed and will have to deal with stupid windows update once again.

    :)

    Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers Windows 7 & 8 (With Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive)

    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .

    How to stop Win10 updating graphic driver!?

    There is a workaround i'm using successfuly since 2 months described at Guru3D
    I suggest to create a system restore point before using it.

    In your case you have to replace the title with "AMD*" of course.
