    Two registry entries for excluding drivers in updates


    I have set my group policy to exclude drivers in Windows updates.
    This adds the value ExcludeWUDriversinQualityUpdates to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate.

    Whilst I was looking at setting something else I also discovered the same value in another key..
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX\Settings

    I read this: Enable or Disable Driver Updates in Windows Update in Windows 10 but this UX setting is not affected by changing the group policy.

    Hi, have you compared the reg file in that tutorial?

    If you have found that group policy and the reg file do different things, I suggest you comment under the tutorial, with reference to this thread.
