Issue with Windows Update AMD Driver

Namely the one below, which keeps being suggested to me in Windows Update despite me not having an igpu. I gave it a shot and installed it a couple of times but when I do, I can no longer open Adrenalin. So I no longer select it when I choose my Windows Updates and it has just been sitting there for ages.

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. - Display - 26.20.15029.27017

Tried to install it and my card started acting weird, so I reverted back to the AMD driver from AMD website.

Anywho, but why does even Windows Update suggest drivers for your GPU? That's weird isn't it? I thought it only suggested things that are related to Windows operating system.
