Windows 10: What will happens if you must stop Windows Updates on laptops to prevent AMD display...

How long can Microsoft update the AMD display drivers? Today's AMD drivers are too cruel now. These Advanced Micro Devices display drivers coming from AMD's installer is much better than Microsoft WU's. It's coming with AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition - the shiny new app intended for gamers - and they're dated little than a tick up-to-date. Microsoft Update Catalog's AMD display driver is ****: they're August 2021 old 30.0.13014.7002 than today's Adrenalin 22.5.1 WHQL - Windows Update push the older driver dead.

Stop AMD Display Driver

Please provide solution for completely stopping driver download for AMD Radeon. This hardware has gone bad and I can't remove it from mother board.

I have a i7 laptop with SSD and it runs very fast except that now it has become useless because of windows auto install of drivers.

So far:

1. I went to safe mode, unistalled driver from Device Manager with delete files option. After this laptop is working fine.

2. Registry - I have added following

ExcludeWUDriversInQualityUpdate - set to 1 under

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate

3. Control panel - Advance System Settings - Device Installation Settings - Set automatic download to No.

Despite step 2 and step 3 , reboot brings back the AMD Driver under Display Drivers and I have just few seconds before I uninstall or computer hangs ( after which its the whole drill of safe mode, uninstall driver .. and in safe mode also it hangs if I lose
the race against the pc after which screen hangs ).

Side note - To play around, I also noticed that even I do hardware scan in Device Manager, AMD Radeon comes back immediately. But since I am there, I uninstall before PC hangs.

So what I need ?

Disable AMD Radeon display forever.

Stop auto update of AMD driver.

Ensure that windows updates comes through without downloading AMD.

 

What will happen if I disable my only display adapter

An engineer at Adobe is helping me diagnose a problem with Photoshop. He suggested that I disable my AMD card from device manager and run Photoshop on the integrated graphics to see if the issue persists.

When I check Device Manager, I see only one display adapter listed:





Shouldn't the integrated graphics also be listed? If AMD is my only display adapter, I am reluctant to disable it.

Windows version 1903 (OS Build 18362.592)
