Just a heads up, just got the bugger. https://www.tenforums.com/graphic-cards/144634-windows-update-forcing-nvidia-driver-432-00-a.html If i now update to the latest, will this bugger get forced through again, overwriting it ?
I was still on the 431.60s, as was having no issues at all with them, looks like i'll have to go above 432, or it'll just come back
It seems fine, ive tested a couple of games, and not seen any problems so far, so im debating wether to bother updating from it now
Damn never had any Nvidia drivers forced through windows update. Could be a setting in the update advanced tab causing this.
If you want to continue receiving updates on win 10 insider but want to stop a specific driver from constantly being forced use the windows 10 show or hide updates tool. Sorry if the pictures are condescending, this is originally for someone with minimal OS literacy. Step 1: Pause all updates after the progress bar has reached 1% or higher for the offending driver. Step 2: Download the windows 10 show or hide updates tool. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us...t-a-windows-update-from-reinstalling-in-windo Step 3: Run the tool, make sure you click the advanced button and check: Apply repairs automatically then select next. Step 4: Select Hide Updates and put a check next to the offending driver, hit next and you're done. Step 5: Un-pause your updates and you should be golden. If you for some reason need that update down the road run the Show or Hide Updates Tool again but just choose the show hidden updates tree and run that process instead. https://imgur.com/gallery/UA5Y5Jx
Hmmm, I have this issue also. I created a dual boot with windows 10 1809 to upgrade the second install, and see if it's better, worse or the same. While on my primary drive nothing gets forced over older nvidia drivers, I was stunned to get this 432 driver pushed on the second install. Then again I'm now at 441.20 on my primary install, and don't know if it's also pushed if I return to 431.36. Anyway, in device manager you can select your display device and in properties choose for rollback to previous driver. It will have both on your system but hides the inactive one, even removes traces in registry. ps. it's downloaded very fast by windows update and immidiately listed as installed. I couldn't hide it in wu with the tool. Maybe if I uninstall them, install a newer version, then it could be it's in the updates list, but not downloaded. I'm gonna try that now...
can you just set Windows 10 to not download Driver Updates but to still download normal updates? I always do this because 1) i dont like the drivers that microsoft pushes and 2) i prefer to control video/sound drivers i just googled "windows 10 block driver updates" and it still seems valid
I just cleared RTX 270S drivers with DDU (in the safe mode) and the 432 version was installed as soon as I rebooted and started the nvidia.com driver installer.
