Hi HM,
My name is Jocelyn, an independent advisor happy to help.
Here's how to disable automatic driver downloads.
Go Control Panel>System and Security>System>Click Advanced system settings from the left pane.
Select the Hardware tab.
Press the Device Installation Settings button.
Choose No, and then press the Save Changes button.
To uninstall your audio driver:
Go to Device Manager box, right-click the audio driver and choose Uninstall.
I hope this information help. Let me know if you need anything else.
Best,
Jocelyn
