I don't understand what you mean by updating automatically. There are two effective ways to update your display driver on windows 10

1. Through device manager (right click on "start" icon you'll see the option)
* click on display adapters and right click on Microsoft basic adapter then click update. Choose the online option

2. Through windows update. You'll surely see your driver there then download and wait while it installs

Non of the two method worked for me. Anyway problem fixed.

Lol. ....that's impossicant grin

You just need to activate it through the search bar on your Taskbar with Internet. The search will then change to Cortana

download driver booster from onhax and crack it, it will update and install your drivers including the display driver.

It's always better to download drivers through windows update because these softwares just download the latest drivers for you whether compatible or not

@ computerboy. My Display driver is working in reverse, i.e the brightness button decreases brightness while the decrease button increases brightness. I have to disable and enable my Display driver any time i switch on my PC because the brightness setting is not maintained. Display driver was downloaded from Intel website. Could it be i installed the wrong Display driver for my PC?

I'm using the latest version of Windows 10 on my pc. Lately, I can no longer download or install software updates presented on Windows Store. When I click on an update to install, it keeps downloading till eternity and finally presenting an error message. I've tried the Wsreset.exe command, logging in and out of Store, among others, all to no avail. How do I get around this issue Cos it's sickening when you are helplessly stuck on older versions of your installed softwares when there are series of updates being rolled out.

You downloaded an incompatible version. Hardly will you get your exact version from Intel. That's why i advised you use Windows update. Anyways un-install it and use "driverpack solution". Just Google the download link

Since you've tried all those above then i can only advise you delete your "softwaredistribution" folder. It won't delete fully then restart and delete the remaining part.
You can locate it under Windows folder in your C drive

They won't be compatible especially the display driver

I had same problem,if the laptop came with windows 8 or 8.1,theirs a big chance the drivers will be compatible,except for WLAN driver which I had to download the win10 version from lenovo website. If he seeks for the win10 version of the display driver,he's likely gonna run into display glitches,muted sound if u plug in earpiece, delayed bootup, laggy option menus ,The only benefit he will only encounter from the update Is increased dedicated grahics memory,nothing more.

I will like to ask this question. Why is it that most windows users despise Windows 8.1 even though the os is better by far than windows 7 (crap to me). There is nothing about windows 7 in my windows 10 build. I don't think there is any feature in windows 7 that my previous os (8.1) did not have. Why the ignorance?

Go to windows defender settings, you'll see it. I'm not with my PC now so I can't guide you exactly but it's under settings. Also installing a third party Antivirus will deactivate it automatically.

As for Cortana, right click on the icon by the search bar. You can guide yourself from there
