Best way I've found is go to services in windows, and just disable the update service all together. For a dedicated rig it's fine, if you're actually using the computer as well, I wouldn't suggest it because it does turn off the security updates as well.

I am having a terrible issue with AMD Drivers autoupdating and crashing my rig.

I have AMD Drivers v 16.11.5 installed (Also tried 16.9.2) for my 480 cards.... Rigs work fine for a couple of hours, then BAM... Drivers get automatically updated to the latest RELIVE AMD v17.1 which crashes my rig.

I have the "UPDATE" checkbox unchecked after installing my 16.11.5 or 16.9.2 drivers but it still updates.

Anyone able to fix this issue? Driving me crazy. Need to have updates OFF!
