Here is what I use to stop windows.
Enable or Disable Driver Updates in Windows Update in Windows 10

You still need to defeat nVidia from looking
Display Driver Uninstaller Download version 17.0.9.1
Use DDU to install/remove your drivers and you will never have another problem.
I agree, usually. It is easily reversible and Brink's stuff is right on.
Normally I do not like to hack registry either so I understand.
Did you look through nVidia software. Windows on or off won't stop nVidia from calling home.
DDU works just fine. Use it don't use it. I have never had an issue with installing an Nvidia driver. DDU, as part of it's cleanup, removes Nvidia from the registry and there is not a Reg hack posted here by Shawn that cannot be trusted. This program is also approved for use by Nvidia.
