Managing and deploying updates via Configuration Manager
Thanks for your feedback!
I find another article may can help you. From the article, there are two kinds of device drivers, the ones that you need to run setup.exe and run a complete installation as there are supporting software needed as well. For these drivers running the setup silently will work as an upgrade as well.
Then we have the kind that is only delivered as an .inf, .cat and .sys files like for instance network drivers. For this type, we can deploy it use PNPutil.exe.
For more details, please refer to this link:
