Hi @HAFODELY 

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

Thanks for posting your query! We're here to help you get back up and running.

 

The HP - USB - 12/10/2018 12:00:00 AM - 49.0.4411.18331 update has been causing issues for some users, particularly with installation errors and repeated appearances in Windows Update.

 

Common Issues & Fixes

 

Installation Errors

  • Some users report that the update fails to install repeatedly.
  • If this happens, try hiding the update using Microsoft’s Show or Hide Updates troubleshooter here.

 

Update Appearing Multiple Times

  • If Windows keeps prompting the same update, clearing the SoftwareDistribution folder may help:
    • Open Command Prompt as Administrator (Win + X → Command Prompt (Admin)).
    • Run:
      net stop wuauserv
    • Navigate to C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download and delete all contents.
    • Run:
      net start wuauserv
    • Restart your PC.
       

If the update isn’t causing hardware issues, you may not need to install it at all. Let me know if you need further guidance!
