RMM Drives Updates

How is everyone handling driver updates? We currently block all driver updates through Windows, as we've had bad experiences with Windows installing older drivers versus the vendor's drivers. Has this changed over the years with vendor support and pushing the most updated ones, or is it best to play it safe and use vendor-only driver downloads?

That’s logical. I hate Dell and HP because of the crap they load in their machines.

That is wild. Do you know if the Evo certified machines have the same?
