I updated my Intel UHD graphic driver to the latest graphic driver 31.0.101.3222/31.0.101.2111 
My processor is  Intel i5 11400. and I use windows 1. So i updated my drivers long back ago. Now it gives me a problem yesterday I saw that the graphics driver automatically moved to its older version 27.20.100.9078 So I installed the latest version again and it runs fine. And today now i open my pc and saw that i moved back to older version again 😞 

What is the solution? 

because I don't want to use the older version cz it has some graphical problem in Figma and other app

Windows update is re-installing the older driver.

Use the Microsoft wushowhide  utility to block/hide the older driver:

First, update to 2111.

Restart

Run the wushowhide utility and hide the older driver

Then, do a windows update if you want.
