Drivers Manager Apps and Alternatives

Drivers are computer programs that are meant to help high-level computer programs to interact with hardware devices correctly

Drivers managers are computer applications which enable users to keep their drivers updated to ensure the smooth performance of the computer.

They usually either do so by comparing your drivers to the latest ones found online, or by coming preinstalled with all the latest drivers (but the usually occupy a large amount of disk space)

Several drivers managers offer users the possibility to choose the drivers that should be updated, whereas others do not provide this option and will update all of them.

Another function of these applications is to notify users whenever there is a new update, without actually downloading the update, while some even offer you the change to see the changelog for each update.

Drivers managers can also be used to backup drivers so that users will be able to reinstall them without requiring the dedicated CD.
