Stop forced graphics driver updates?????

[BigFeet]

Why can't this be done. I do NOT want the latest driver on all of my PC's until I have thoroughly tested them. If microsoft continues to force these, it's a deal breaker.

No guarantees. Have a look at this .........

While I personally wouldn't recommend, at this stage of the game, stopping any Windows Updates. You might also have a look here https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3073930
Perhaps it might prove useful.

Yeah, I'm trying this now. Thanks

That seems to have worked, at least temporarily. I reinstalled the last "official" nvidia drivers, ran wushowhide.diagcab, and reran windows update. No updated nvidia drivers. I'm not clear that will be the case when the next ones are "forced" upon us. But, at least it's an option, as long as they don't bork the OS, like it did for some.
