(Possibly) Stupid Question about Windows Update Settings
I am on the help desk at a company with a fleet of entirely Dell Latitudes of different models. One of our models, the 5410, has started auto-installing an incompatible Realtek High Definition Audio Driver via Windows Update, so we need to backdate them to the previous version manually or the sound device doesn't work. Obviously, this is not a workable solution, since the computers will just update to the newer (incompatible) version again via Windows Update.
I brought this up to our sysadmin who told me that we could only disable Windows Update driver updates globally, and I have been having trouble trying to find a workaround. I would ask him to help me, but he is very lazy and refuses to do any work or troubleshooting unless he absolutely has to, so I am wondering if any of you have seen anything similar before. I would appreciate any help!
From my side, the follow-through is what will decide this and that’s why opinions are all over the place Feels like there’s more coming here.
there’s a lot said here but not much clarified and that’s what people are responding to
From a practical angle, this depends heavily on what happens next and that’s what people are responding to That’s the key detail here.
Putting bias aside, the way this is presented changes how it lands which makes the reaction pretty predictable Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
To be fair, the timing matters more than people admit That’s what makes this interesting. Let’s see what happens next.

the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage

From my side, the intention might be solid, the rollout less so so the response doesn’t surprise me Curious how this plays out.
the direction makes sense but the details are messy and that’s where it gets complicated That’s what makes this interesting. Feels like there’s more coming here.

Bluntly speaking, the logic is there, but the execution is uneven so the response doesn’t surprise me That’s the key detail here. Hard to say where this lands long term. That’s the impression it gives me.

Not gonna lie, this depends heavily on what happens next which is why this is getting picked apart Let’s see what happens next. That’s the impression it gives me.
