That coloured text was to highlight the exact text you were going to type into the search bar and what to look for.

My Win10 pro didn't have the option below, so I thought "that's no bleeding good as some Woke pillock under 40 will need there bloody hand holding to do this" so I used my noggin (not insignificant brain) and found an easier way to do it and posted that for you instead, I'm not saying that you are one of the pillocks above but I didn't know that did I?.

Even a respected site like "tomsHARDWARE" tells you how to do it and why.

hey i'm much too old for a woke pillock

The above may work but it stops all of the push-through updates, i guess you cannot differentiate between graphics and all other drivers, but .. try and report

I didn't say it was perfect did I?, anyone who lets Corporations update their drivers on their PC without any prior knowledge of what they are doing needs their bloody head examined.

^ Good luck trying to stop a Windows 10 update, you can postpone the update, but not forever.
Unless you have the Enterprise version.

Microsoft reserves itself the right to automatically "update" your drivers, and you cannot hinder them. Same for newer graphic card companies.
You can manually remove it, install old ones and have fun for a while, until the next update being perpetrated on you. In some cases, new drivers are not better or have unexpected impacts on other parts and devices.
If you are behind a server in a domain, updates have to be allowed, same if you have a stand-alone single Enterprise edition of Win 10.
But as long you have 'home' or professional' you cannot evade it.
This is progress.

Tks Catfish for your reply i have win 10 Pro. Well hell letem make enough money and they will refine it till you pay top dollar for your computer. But it will belong to them. So one day in the future i'll take this tower out in the backyard and let go a 12 gauge round into it. And go back and start reading my paperback books. Unless my neighbor turns me in for having them.

So Microsoft is the Matrix? And i will be better off buying a 12 foot aluminum boat with an electric motor. Looking for a body of water i can launch into from the shore that's not owned by the rich.Today thats a dream to.In 1978 Florida you could do that and i will say this life was great and if you were young well we were explorers , the lakes and rivers the forest and our swamps. These were the places that we explored and we found things as young folks we could only tell our parents about.And now there is Today The Microsoft Matrix . The mark of the beast is not a stamp on your head.We now carry it with us everyday and can't live without. It's called Electronics.
