I have a question. I recently ran into a rather odd situation where my razer mouse synapse software update from a week ago broke the scroll wheel function on my mouse (bought new one thinking old had died, but it happened on it as well). So I was looking at this thread and wondered if perhaps Windows 10 update might have been prompting me for updates on that software program with outdated update instead of the update prompt coming directly from the synapse program itself.
There is an option within the synapse dashboard to look for updates which I can use manually, but did not realize Windows 10 updater might possibly be the culprit in my little saga. I've put in bug tickets to Razer and finally got a software support tech request for log files, etc. so they could see what might be the cause to break the scroll wheel function with the synapse program running, but when turned off, the scroll wheel functions on both (old and new) mice work perfectly.
I recall managing to block my nVidia drivers from being auto updated with Windows 10 updater, because of the conflict with the video card's new drivers vs older ones, that happened to be inadvertently used by Windows 10 updater. I manually update my nVidia video drivers periodically and have not had this problem since.
But can this be accomplished for a specific software install like the Razer synapse program for my mice? Is it possible to specifically target just the the synapse program to prevent Windows 10 updater from auto updating this software?
