    Need to Stop HP Driver Update


    Win 10 Pro on HP Envy PC. Windows Update is presenting an HP USB update (from 2012) with status "Pending Install". This appeared a few days ago so I installed it which resulted in USB problems with my HP printer. That is, could not print any more. Poked around and found an error claiming the printer would not work on a USB 3.0 port but it has been using the same port for years just fine. I couldn't find a way to roll-back the driver. I ended up doing a System Restore which worked and the printer started working again. But now that same update has appeared in Windows Update again even though the update status shows the HP USB update already installed.

    Windows Updates shows:

    HP-USB-8/13/2012 12:00:00 AM - 7.0.0.25
    Status: Pending Install

    How do I make this driver update go away ( and stay away) so it doesn't install again?

    Printer Stopped Wording HP LazerJet 4 Plus

    Thanks so much for your reply !

    I stepped through each process listed with no change in my situation. The printer will not respond on anything needing printing.

    In addition wile updating drivers from the HP support site there was notice list concerning Windows 10 and two recent updates KB3132372 and kb3133431, they stated first KB created the problem trying to solve a problem with Adobe Flash and the second was
    a fix ? They suggested removing flash, restarting machine and trying printer. I also did this with no results !
