All Videos Images Short videos Forums News More Tools

AI Overview

To prevent Windows Update from interfering with com0com, disable the "Do not include
drivers with Windows Updates" policy in the Local Group Policy Editor , or for a more
permanent solution, disable automatic driver updates via the Registry Editor. You can also
use the setupc --no-update command when installing com0com to prevent immediate driver
updates, and if driver signature issues persist, you may need to disable driver signature
enforcement temporarily during installation.

Method 1: Using Local Group Policy Editor


This method disables driver updates for all devices, not just com0com.

1. Press Windows Key + R , type [Link] , and press Enter.

2. Navigate to: Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows


Components > Windows Update .

3. Double-click "Do not include drivers with Windows Updates".

4. Select "Enabled".

5. Click Apply and then OK.

Method 2: Using Registry Editor


This method offers more granular control over automatic updates.

1. Press Windows Key + R , type regedit , and press Enter.

2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows .

3. Right-click the Windows folder and select New > Key . Name it WindowsUpdate .

4. Right-click WindowsUpdate and select New > Key . Name it AU .

5. Right-click the new AU key and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value . Name it
NoAutoUpdate .

6. Double-click NoAutoUpdate , set the Value data to 1 , and click OK.

Method 3: Installing com0com with a specific command


This is a per-installation setting that prevents driver updates during the com0com
installation.

1. Open a Command Prompt as an administrator.

2. Navigate to the com0com installation directory, for example, cd /D


"%ProgramFiles%\com0com" .

3. Run the installer with the --no-update option for each port pair you want to create, like
this: [Link] --no-update install 1 .

4. After installing all the necessary ports, run the command again without the --no-update
option: [Link] install 1 .

Method 4: Disabling driver signature enforcement


This method may be necessary if com0com drivers are not loading and you see an error in
Device Manager.

1. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Security > Device Security .

2. Click on Core isolation details .

3. Turn off "Memory integrity" and restart your computer.

4. After restarting, you may need to temporarily disable driver signature enforcement during
the com0com installation process. To do this, restart your computer and press F7 when
prompted to disable driver signature enforcement.
