    Refuse driver updates in Windows 10?


    I'm not on 10240(got my systems set for the upgrade), but I would suspect it should function now that Win10 isn't "castrated" anymore. But as I always tell people-Make a system image anyhow(just in case). I do not like Windows updating drivers either, I can get them at OEM or hardware site, and only if I'm having problems, on in the case of an OS upgrade.

    unfortunately it doesn't seem to do the trick. On another forum a user had tried it but windows update still installed drivers for his keyboard which made it useless. I made these settings on my desktop rig running 8.1 pro and then ran "check for updates" and it still listed a new driver for my AMD GPU. I activated automatic updates and rebooted and the new driver didn't install but it is uncomfortable knowing it's lurking there. I'm gonna evaluate the final windows 10 several months on my NUC before deciding if I should update my desktop PC.

    Refuse driver updates in Windows 10?

    yes sorry, I know about that. What I meant to say was that the hide feature won't be possible in windows 10, so what I'm worried about is that it will sneak install. I always hide updates I don't need when I do my monthly manual windows update.
