latest intel xe driver is replaced by old drive from windows updates


I have used "Update Driver" before in device manager, but following a reboot found the old driver back again.
Rolling back driver gives you an opportunity to give an answer which tells Windows not to bother installing previous/older versions.
so use tool mentioned by @hsehestedt
I have used this tool but Windows knows best and goes ahead anyway!

just as a matter of interest do you have any 3rd party driver updater programs installed, that includes OEM bloatware updaters

@PenPusher
do you have the same problem with your Nvidea card??

Never had a problem with any other drivers except for Intel on board graphics.
i have installed Intel driver support assistant program.
Yes I only use this to update any and all Intel related drivers.

3rd party updaters can sometimes be a bit misleading :(

i dont get it ? whats the point if there is a tool for that suggested by hsehestedt
As I stated, I used that tool. Great. That blocked that old driver from being installed. But then, Microsoft installed an even older driver!
