We've probably mentioned this somewhere else on the forums, but it can be a real pain when Win 10 auto installs a driver update that causes a problem. If you prefer to be old school like Win7 and manage your drivers yourself, you can disable this from the Group Policy Editor in Win 10 Pro:

Disable auto driver updates in Windows Update:
Group Policy Editor -> Admin Templates -> Windows Components -> Windows Update -> Enable "Do not include drivers with Windows Updates"

There's a registry hack for Win 10 Home explained here:
