虽然简单地插入设备并让Windows 10、Windows 8 或 Windows 7 自动安装驱动程序很酷，但您可能出于某种原因不希望自动安装驱动^(Driver)程序。您可以根据需要阻止 Windows 自动安装驱动程序。Windows 10/8/7中停止自动驱动程序^(Driver)更新。如果您遵循本教程，您可以使用控制面板^{(Control Panel)}、Windows 注册表^{(Windows Registry)}或组策略编辑器禁用^{(Group Policy Editor)}Windows 10中特定设备的自动驱动程序安装^{(disable automatic driver installation)}。

禁用自动驱动程序更新

1]使用控制面板

虽然建议您让Windows 自动下载驱动程序和现实图标，但您可以阻止Windows 10/8自动安装驱动程序，打开控制^(Control)面板> Advanced System设置> Hardware选项卡> Device Installation设置。

您也可以通过打开Control Panel > Device和打印机 >右键单击^{(Right-click)}​​设备^(Devices)下的计算机^(Computer)并选择设备安装设置^{(Device Installation settings)}来访问它。

你会被问到，你想为你的设备下载驱动软件和逼真的图标吗？^{(Do you want to download driver software and realistic icons for your devices?)}

这里选择否，让我选择做什么^{(No, let me choose what to do)}。单击保存更改。

2]使用组策略编辑器

在开始搜索中键入gpedit.msc并按^(gpedit.msc)Enter打开Group Policy Editor。

导航到Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Device Installation > Device Installation。

现在在RHS窗格中双击防止安装未由其他策略设置描述的设备^{(Prevent Installation of Devices not described by other policy settings)}。

This policy setting allows you to prevent the installation of devices that are not specifically described by any other policy setting.

If you enable this policy setting, Windows is prevented from installing or updating the device driver for any device that is not described by either the “Allow installation of devices that match any of these device IDs”, the “Allow installation of devices for these device classes”, or the “Allow installation of devices that match any of these device instance IDs” policy setting.

If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Windows is allowed to install or update the device driver for any device that is not described by the “Prevent installation of devices that match any of these device IDs”, “Prevent installation of devices for these device classes” policy setting, “Prevent installation of devices that match any of these device instance IDs”, or “Prevent installation of removable devices” policy setting.

将其设置为Enabled。Click Apply / OK。

3]使用Windows注册表

如果您的Windows没有组策略^{(Group Policy)}，您可以导航到Windows 注册表^{(Windows Registry)}中的以下项：

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DriverSearching

将SearchOrderConfig^{(SearchOrderConfig)}的值设置为0以阻止驱动程序更新。值1允许下载驱动程序更新。

重启你的电脑。

注意^(NOTE)：这些选项不会阻止安装那些设备ID^(IDs)、设备实例ID^(IDs)和设备类已添加到组策略^{(Group Policy)}中以进行自动安装的驱动程序。如果您想阻止所有驱动程序的自动更新，那么您可以查看这篇关于如何通过 Windows 质量更新阻止驱动程序更新^{(Block Driver Updates via Windows Quality Update)}的帖子。

停止^(Stop)自动安装或重新安装驱动程序

如果已安装设备驱动程序并且您想将其删除，然后停止更新该特定驱动程序，请执行以下操作：^{(Device Driver)}

1. 通过设备管理器卸载驱动程序
2. 使用Windows 10中的显示或隐藏更新工具来阻止特定的驱动程序更新。

希望这可以帮助。

How to disable Automatic Driver Updates in Windows 10

While simply plugging іn the device аnd letting Windows 10, Windоws 8, or Windows 7 install the driver automaticallу is cool, you may for ѕome reason prefer not to have the Driver installed automatically. You can if you wiѕh, stop windows from installing the driverѕ automаticаlly. You can stop automatic Driver updates in Windows 10/8/7. If you follow this tutorial, you can disable automatic driver installation for specific devices in Windows 10, using Control Panel, Windows Registry, or Group Policy Editor.

Disable Automatic Driver Updates

1] Using Control Panel

While it is recommended that you let make Windows download Drivers & Realistic Icons automatically if you wish, you can stop Windows 10/8 from automatically installing Drivers, open Control panel > Advanced System settings > Hardware tab > Device Installation settings.

You can also access it by opening Control Panel > Device & printers > Right-click the Computer under Devices and select Device Installation settings.

You will be asked, Do you want to download driver software and realistic icons for your devices?

Here select No, let me choose what to do. Click Save changes.

2] Using Group Policy Editor

Type gpedit.msc in start search and hit Enter to open Group Policy Editor.

Navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Device Installation > Device Installation.

Now in the RHS pane double click on Prevent Installation of Devices not described by other policy settings.

This policy setting allows you to prevent the installation of devices that are not specifically described by any other policy setting.

If you enable this policy setting, Windows is prevented from installing or updating the device driver for any device that is not described by either the “Allow installation of devices that match any of these device IDs”, the “Allow installation of devices for these device classes”, or the “Allow installation of devices that match any of these device instance IDs” policy setting.

If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, Windows is allowed to install or update the device driver for any device that is not described by the “Prevent installation of devices that match any of these device IDs”, “Prevent installation of devices for these device classes” policy setting, “Prevent installation of devices that match any of these device instance IDs”, or “Prevent installation of removable devices” policy setting.

Set it at Enabled. Click Apply / OK.

3] Using Windows Registry

If your Windows does not have Group Policy, you can navigate to the following key in Windows Registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DriverSearching

Set the value of SearchOrderConfig to 0 to block driver updates. A value of 1 allows downloads of driver updates.

Restart your computer.

NOTE: These options don’t prevent the installation of those drivers whose device IDs, device instance IDs, and device classes are added in Group Policy for automatic installation. If you want to prevent the automatic updates of all the drivers, then you can check this post on how to Block Driver Updates via Windows Quality Update.

Stop automatic driver installation or reinstallation

If a Device Driver has already been installed and you want to remove it and then stop that particular driver from being update, do the following:

1. Uninstall the Driver via Devices Manager
2. Use the Show or Hide Updates Tool in Windows 10 to block the particular driver update.

Hope this helps.
