I just got a new laptop and was installing all the Windows updates (including driver updates) to it. One of the driver updates failed. Windows update tells me that one did, but not which one (other than it was a driver update and maybe I have a better one already installed, but it will keep trying). I looked through update history, but cannot find one listed as failed.
I just want to turn off that update and not have it keep trying. But I don't know how to find which one it was, nor how to turn it off.
Exact message:
A current driver on your PC may be better than the driver we're trying to install. We'll keep trying to install.
(And, I just want to say, stop trying....)

"wushowhide.diagcab" has been deprecated by Microsoft and to the best of my knowledge, you can no longer hide updates.
Microsoft uses the WER reports to fix the problem at their end.
Find the Driver Update app for your computer and make sure all drivers including BIOS are up to date. That may (or may not) clear the problem.
Otherwise, leave it be and it will clear eventually.
