It works with Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP. There's also a basic hardware information utility that you can access from the program's Tools menu. This has been indispensable for me after a few new Windows installations couldn't get online without the network driver.

This isn't a feature unique to Driver Talent, but I do really like to see it.Īn alternative version includes network drivers and works offline, which is perfect if you need to install drivers but don't have the proper network driver installed. The size of a driver as well as its release date and version number are displayed before starting a download to verify you're getting what you're after. A Peripheral Drivers area of the program calls out printer and USB drivers, telling you very clearly if they're installed and working normally. This application not only updates outdated and missing drivers, but also fixes corrupted ones and backs up all your installed drivers. I've used it to install drivers in Windows 11, but it also works if you have an older version like Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP.ĭriver Talent (previously called DriveTheLife) is a straightforward program that downloads device drivers so that you don't have to search the internet for official download links.

I suggest using the Snappy Driver Installer Origin Forum if you're struggling to learn how the program works.Ī few things I like are that there are no advertisements, it doesn't limit download speeds, it can run directly from a portable location like a flash drive, and it can install as many drivers as necessary without any limitations.

Right-clicking a driver provides extra options like showing alternative drivers, copying the hardware ID, and locating the driver's INF file.

After they're downloaded, the program gives you immediate access to install the updates-with or without an internet connection.Īfter using it a while, I can say the app itself is fairly simple, but it's still strangely hard to use because of the way it's set up. Snappy Driver Installer lets you download several drivers at once for many types of devices. Other functions are available, too: roll back drivers, uninstall drivers, ignore drivers, export a list of drivers to a text file, use Game Boost to release system resources, and view system information details.ĭriver Booster works in Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP.

It works by exporting information from your non-working PC so you can get the network driver from a working computer. There's also an offline updater built-in. The program creates a restore point before installing a driver in the event something goes wrong with the installation. I love that when new updates appear, they're downloaded from inside the program, so I can avoid having to get them manually from each manufacturer's website.īefore installing a driver, you can see how the new version compares with the currently installed driver, which is helpful. It runs automatically to find outdated drivers, and with support for over 6 million drivers (millions more if you pay) from over one thousand brands, there's a good chance it'll find what you need. It can be annoying at times because of how it advertises other products, but it's compatible with all versions of Windows and makes updating drivers simple because it does all the heavy lifting for you. It's always the tool I use on my computers and what I recommend first to anyone wanting one of these programs.
