    What is the "Surface - Keyboard 1.0.104.0" Driver?


    Running v1909 on the first system in my specs.
    Keyboard: Microsoft KC-0405 - wired.

    Windows Update is nagging me to install the Surface - Keyboard 1.0.104.0 Driver.
    Now I checked and this driver seems to be for a wireless keyboard filter, but I could be wrong.

    I went into Device Manager and selected my wired keyboard and updated the driver from there.
    This changed the device from "Keyboard" to "Wireless Keyboard Device Filter".
    On restart there was an unknown device listed with the yellow bang and it was the wireless keyboard device filter.
    Did a restore point and everything back to normal.

    I used the Windows Update hide-show troubleshooter to try and hide the update. Didn't work. The update persists.

    Looking for thoughts on what this driver is, and why Windows is offering a driver for a device I do not have.

    And I set a Group Policy option to "do not include drivers" under Windows Update...
    And it is still there.

    Group Policy Editor worked. It just took a while.
