Windows Update randomly overwriting 21.5.2 display driver with 6 month old version
-
Happened twice to me, you have to manually disable driver updates via group policy. The usual way of disabling just doesn't seem to work.

ID: gzfo52xReports on this happening are widespread, especially for Renoir laptops. But also for various other products.
ID: gzee0piWeird. I have never disabled anything via group policy and have never had AMD driver updated. Maybe it's because I used DDU once and selected the disable driver update ?
ID: gzeeirhI've also used DDU multiple times and driver updates are long disabled, but Windows has done its thing the second time in a row, so I had to do it via group policy. Not sure why or how, probably some Windows glitch.
ID: gzeva71Where do I access this group policy dealio?
ID: gzf2ibhYou require a Windows Pro license to access it but if you have it then here's how:
Click Start
Type in "gpedit"
Click "Edit group policy"
Navigate to: "Computer Configuration - Administrative Templates - Windows Components - Windows Update"
Double click on "Do not include drivers with Windows Updates"
Click Enabled
Click OK
Close Group Policy Editor and reboot your PC
ID: gzedq3tyea I have it disabled in system settings, but... windows 10
I really hate windows 10
ID: gzexdrjwelcomes you -
I thinks it's because 21.4.2 is Microsoft certified and considered "Stable" where 21.5.2 is not Microsoft certified yet, and therefore is considered "Edge/Nightly". So Microsoft update runs, and grabs the driver it thinks is right, even though Radeon is telling you it isn't.
ID: gzesonhAnd sometimes MS has their driver database jacked up.
On my laptop, Windows will keep installing a 2015 Intel graphics driver version over the 2019 version.
ID: gzfoe14I think it is rather that AMD has their driver versioning messed up which confuses Windows.
ID: gzek4nbYou propably meant 21.4.1 which is WHQL Recommended. 21.4.2 does not exists.
ID: gzef3xcWindows shoved 20.12.1 on my system tho which is from December.
ID: gzfilqwWow; that is jaw droppingly shit design.

Dude, that just happened to me too 10mins ago. I had no idea why my screen went black for a moment until I saw your post. Bruh.
ID: gzfcfs4Hey, can you check what your Device ID is? Development is trying to determine if this is a specific case. You can find out following the steps below:
Open Device Manager Display Adapters > GPU > Right-Click > Properties Details > Hardware Ids Copy the first value and reply to me here, which should look like this: PCIVEN_1002&DEV_73BF&SUBSYS_0E3A1002&REV_C0Thanks!
ID: gzfea6eThis just happened to me when I booted into Windows 10, about 5 minutes ago.

I was watching Youtube, boom black screen, now I can't launch Radeon Software because my software and driver versions do not match. So I can't even update. I'm trying to fix it by doing a reinstall (instead of DDU).
ID: gzfgg2mHad the same problem yesterday, thought my second monitor died at first lol.
Will send the device ID when i'm back home.
ID: gzeexrflol my screen also turned off like 5 times and explorer.exe crashed, I wasn't pleased

ID: gzfh25dAwesome, thank you for the quick response!

This just happened to me as well. I also had to use Group Policy to stop Windows Update from replacing the driver.

Here you go I hope this can help and this happened to me while I was watching videos on youtube 6800 xt reference.

I am so tired of how broken Windows updates have been for at least the past year. I mean, normally they're pretty bad, but now it seems like they're just YOLOing the whole thing.

Randomly happened in the middle of a Valorant Competitive, Screen went black and my refresh rate was 60Hz, I couldn't access radeon settings and had to reboot.
ID: gzfcwvvHey, can you check what your Device ID is? Development is trying to determine if this is a specific case. You can find out following the steps below:
For your case, select your AMD APU, not your Nvidia GPU.

I also got messed by Windows update forcing an AMD driver on me overnight. Took me 45 mins to get things back to where I wanted them...
-
It happened to me twice and Radeon settings wouldn't open after that. Rolling back the driver to the latest version and disabling driver update fixed it
-
Happened to me too. For now I just clicked the "disable updates for 7 days" button in case Microsoft fixes this quickly.
ID: gzev1twYeah that or regularly pausing updates up to the maximum of 35 days avoids a lot of day-one problems with updates. I think it is best practice right now considering the recent history of Windows Update kerfuffles, even if it's better on average today compared to a few years back.

Many years ago, I think it was 17.7.1 or 17.1.1 there was an AMD driver that was stuck as what windows update would force if you had a radeon GPU. It would overwrite anything and the only way to stop it was to stop windows update automatically. See of course the problem is, that driver was broken. It was bad for everyone, for my dad's system in particular it made the system completely nonfunctional. And yet for at least a period of 6 months if you ran windows update with a radeon GPU it installed it.
It's not the only case of windows update fixating on a bad driver for AMD GPUs. But it was the earliest one I know of, and the one that impacted me or those I knew the most. And that is why I don't let things automatically update.
-
I already wondered that the hell the display flickering, explorer crashing and windows device removal sound was about, turns out I got this "Update" too.
-
This windows update fucked up. Had to reinstall Radeon software
-
Happened to me too today.
-
It does that to me literally with every driver for my Gpu

What peace of Software is this?
