Prevent Driver Changes
Notes
- To be done after a proper driver is manually installed
- This ensures Windows Update nor anything else can replace installed drivers for specific devices unattended
- Additional entries need to add a new number (the value after
/v
) - The device ID can be acquired from Device Manager and should be pasted as-is (no extra slashes)
Base Policies
reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions" /v "DenyDeviceIDs" /t "REG_DWORD" /d "1" /f
reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions" /v "DenyDeviceIDsRetroactive" /t "REG_DWORD" /d "0" /f
Format
- Do not copy/paste these as-is; only here for reference
- Adjust to specific devices as-needed
Add Prevent Policy
reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions\DenyDeviceIDs" /v "#" /t "REG_SZ" /d "PCI\VEN_XXXX&DEV_XXXX&SUBSYS_XXXXXXXX&REV_XX" /f
Remove Prevent Policy
