If you are a Windows user, you surely know that every hardware device needs a driver in order to function. Most modern devices can be automatically detected by the Windows operating system, but in case you have an older device or if your Windows version is older, the driver for that device may not be detected properly or not at all. In this case, you would have to use Google to find the proper driver for the device, which can take a lot of time. By using the DriverEasy application, searching drivers on Google will become a thing of the past.

That's because this simple Windows program can scan the system for connected devices and hardware components and can automatically find the best drivers for all of them. The software is very simple to install and is compatible even with older versions of Windows.

After installing and running the application, the user will notice a graphical interface which includes some large buttons. Using the Scan button, the program can quickly scan the system for hardware devices and at the end of the scanning process, it can suggest drivers for each found device. At this point, the user can choose which driver to install. He can also download and install all the drivers automatically.

But DriverEasy doesn't only limit to finding device drivers, as it also includes a set of extra tools. Using these tools, one can view detailed hardware information about his system and he can also back up and restore all his system drivers, in case he needs to install a new copy of Windows. This will save him a lot of time, as he doesn't need to go through the driver installation process again.

Using the program, one can also uninstall a driver completely, removing all the files that belong to it. Using the options section of DriverEasy, one can configure the program to perform an automated scanning of the system, at scheduled intervals of time. This will make sure that you will always have the latest drivers for your devices.

Pros

It can scan the system for hardware devices and can suggest drivers for all of them, even for older devices. Besides that, it can automatically download and install drivers. Furthermore, it allows backing up and restoring drivers, in case the user needs to install Windows again.

Cons

Downloading and installing drivers is slow without buying a program license. Registered users will have a dedicated software for downloading drivers at a much higher speed. DriverEasy allows anyone to easily download and install drivers for all his hardware devices, completely automatically.
