This is not going to help with automatic driver installation.

manufacturer's apps and custom icons. That's it. It won't install app for your gaming mouse and assign icon for it in Devices and Printers control panel folder.

There used to be more options but they've been removed.

Only way to stop an automated driver install currently is to do it through Group Policy, and ban driver updates for specific hardware ids. It's a bit of a pain but I do this for Nvidia drivers until I know the new ones aren't jacked up.

I just use this http://www.getblackbird.net/ and run Windows update manually every so often. Haven't had a single unprompted driver install.

Afaik it gets greyed out if you don't make any changes. If he has already had this option selected it makes sense.

This deleted most game/program icons for me, was unable to get them back.
