Changing Windows Update Driver Settings

WINV-1.3.1, WINV-3.3.2

When you connect a new device to your computer, you can specify how you want Windows Update (New!) to find a software driver for the device. The default setting is to automatically check for a driver on your computer or online from the Microsoft Windows Update Web site.

You can use System Properties to specify the option you want.
