Problem With Windows Update
I am running Windows 10, Version 20H2 fully up to date with Windows Update.
Today (16/11/2020) I ran Windows Update to see if there were any new updates.
I clicked on Check For Updates and as usual it started checking for updates.
It then reported:-
Canon - Printer - 8/24/2018 12:00:00 AM - 2.90.2.20
Status: Installing 0%
It then immediately recycled back to Windows Update stating You're Up To Date.
I thought this was strange as it was so fast it didn't appear to do anything, so I decided to run Check For Updates again and this gave exactly the same result.
I checked View Update History, and it gives under Driver Updates:-
Canon - Printer - 8/24/2018 12:00:00 AM - 2.90.2.20
Successfully installed on 16/11/2020
So why when I run Windows Update does it keep giving Canon - Printer - 8/24/2018 12:00:00 AM - 2.90.2.20
Status: Installing 0%
Any help and advice would be appreciated.

Thanks for your reply.
My printer is a Canon Pixma MG6850 and is working OK.
If it is failing to install why does Update History say that it is installed successfully?
I have checked on the Canon web site and I have the latest driver installed.
Is there a way to set Windows Update to ignore this update?
I have exactly trhe same issue. Windows 10 Home, 20H2, all updates applied. I have an older Canon MG5750 printer. Works fine, but Windows update keeps saying it needs the driver installing.
At first it kept saying the update failed, so I uninstalled everything Canon, reinstalled, but Windows now does the update every few days and says 'successful'.
The Canon website driver latest version is OLD. 2015! and its the latest one.
I dont know if I can/how to blok the windows update from happening every time.
Don't think it causes any problems, but its annoying...
