Has anyone have this issue on their Windows 10 installations? Windows update is force installing Nvidia Driver updates and it's messing up whatever version I installed using GE Force Experience.

 

Today Windows decided to install a driver update because apparently Nvidia released a new driver or whatever (353.34). Now I'm getting this weird issue where I get random flickering or artifacting on the desktop or while using a browser. I went and uninstalled the new driver and re-installed the old one I had (353.30) which was working OK and I had no issues. Now every time I restart my PC, Windows decides to install the new one because of whatever reason.... and now I'm stuck using the buggy drivers.

Has any one figured out how to make Windows NOT auto update my display driver?

Launch Geforce Experience and it'll download the correct driver, I haven;t found a way yet

Oddly enough when I uninstalled the 353.34, GeForce said that there were no drivers for my PC. If I delete GeForce and reinstall it, then it shows me 353.30.

@Sam Z Man  My Windows 10 says Pro and also gives me the option to not update. But it still changes my driver back to 353.34 when I boot my PC. Tried looking for it under "Features" like windows patches or updates and it's not there. It's like it downloaded it on my PC and it's auto installing it every time it can.
