    Hello - I have an Asus G14 (2021 model /w 5900hx & 3060).

    I keep noticing windows is force downloading AMD drivers which are older.

    I update my GPU drivers on AMD's website direct, everything is good. Next week I notice windows has force downgraded the drivers to an older version, which makes it so my VR headset stops working.

    Its really frustrating - is there a way I can disable windows from trying to redownload AMD drivers every week?

    Use Winaero Tweaker to disable driver downloads through Windows Update.
