        Are you on a domain joined machine? Are you sure it is not some GPO setting?

            Are they actually being added, or just seen as available, and if you pick it, it's installed?

              Seen this before. It's a "feature" for Windows 10 to auto install the printers and drivers. I can't remember where I've seen the setting but this happens on home systems too.
