Windows 10: Microsoft downgrade the AMD graphics driver when updating windows 11

Every time after windows updates my AMD graphics driver is replaced by an old version. Then my AMD program stops working and i have to reinstall new drivers every time. How to stop this? AMD offers newer drivers via AMD Software: Adrenaline Edition and Windows Update offers slightly older version and forces you to install it. That leaves AMD Software in an absolutely unusable state. Please stop this useless updates
