'Driver updater' software/app are usually a rip-off. Unless you are having a problem with a specific software or hardware then a driver update is not needed. .... The programmer/company that make the 'driver updater' software tries to convince everyone that they must update their hardware drivers. This is total BS. BUT those update programs DO LOAD junk and viruses on to your system without your knowledge. .... If it ant broke, DON'T FIT IT.


The best way to update hardware drivers is through Windows Device Manager: click on the hardware item; click properties; click Drivers; click update. This will up date to the latest MS driver or manufacture driver for that device ... IF IT is needed ... FREE.
