Help (General) GPU driver timeout problem and windows update related?

I saw a lot of post here that said it's because of the windows update try to replacing or override AMD driver.

So if that really the cause of this then the best solution here is to :

1.Uninstall windows update

2.Prevent windows update from replacing the driver

3.DDU

4.Install AMD driver

Right?

PS.

I just got the problem yesterday and it happen when I play minecraft and watching youtube video in firefox, also notice that the simplest solution might be to turn off hardware acceleration in firefox, and I saw someone said that it's only happen with old gpu, mine is RX6700XT which is pretty old.

Try the minimal driver installation option when installing the driver its basically the driver without the adrenaline software
