    Non stop recurring driver update


    Hi all

    I have a problem which is beginning to make go a little insane.
    I have this non stop update almost every time i restart my pc. I say almost because sometimes it does not.
    In a normal day, it will install this update about 6 times.

    ASUS - Other hardware - Asus Support Device
    This is all i know about this update expect that it is being installed constantly.
    It never fails and always installs successfully.

    I have turned off the automatically download drivers setting and this has done nothing.

    Please any assistance will be welcomed.

    Might have solved this for any others out there.
    All the tools failed miserably.
    Edit your registry: regedit.exe
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DriverSearching
    double tap the SearchOrderConfig on the right and change the DWORD value to either 1, 2 or 3
    1 = Install all driver updates automatically
    2 = Notify me about installing driver updates
    3 = Never bother me again about driver updates <- this is what helped me finally.

    I am more than capable of updating my own drivers if and when its needed, so i just went with 3 and windows has finally stopped installing this driver continuously.

    Hope this helps others.
