Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Through Windows 10 update I keep getting "Hewlett-Packard - USB - 2/10/2017 12:00AM - 44.1.2402.1741). When I go to HP Support assistant it does not show that it needs to be updated and when I go to Windows 10 update and look at installed updates, it shows it has been successfully installed. How do I stop getting this update message?
Thanks In Advance

I have tried the above and a couple of other processes. I finally went to Control Panel, System, Device Manager, then to USB Connector Manages. There I did an uninstall and restarted, I have not seen the auto update for the USB since. Keeping my fingers crossed.
