<\/p>\nThe Hardware and Devices troubleshooter in the Control Panel may show "Windows Update Configured to never install drivers – Detected" in the detailed report, and that the troubleshooter couldn’t fix it. You may be wondering which exact setting the troubleshooter is referring to.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It’s referring to the SearchOrderConfig<\/b> registry value at:<\/p>\n If this value is set to 0, then driver updates via WU are blocked. The troubleshooter assumes the same even if the value is missing.<\/p>\n Possible values<\/b><\/p>\n Set it 0 and ignore the device troubleshooter warning. If you want to set it to 1 which is the default Windows setting, you can do so using the Registry Editor (Regedit.exe.) But I’d not suggest installing driver updates for your hardware via Windows Update. Note that in earlier versions of Windows, this can be configured via Windows Updates options, which is removed in Windows 10.<\/p>\n Also, check for the SearchOrderConfig Policy, which is set here:<\/p>\n In the above branch, right-click SearchOrderConfig<\/b> and choose Delete.<\/p>\n Note that if this was set as a Group Policy, you need to reset it using the Local Group Policy Editor.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Hardware and Devices troubleshooter in the Control Panel may show "Windows Update Configured to never install drivers – Detected" in the detailed report, and that the troubleshooter couldn’t fix it.
