@Wm123-_ 

I have no idea what you mean by "unknown" installation  of a driver.


Windows Update, in Win10, AUTOMATICALLY does driver updates, without your knowledge or consent.

 

If this is what you are referring to, then read this about disabling driver updates through Windows Update:  http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/48277-driver-updates-windows-update-enable-disable-windows-10-a.h...

 

Good Luck
