Uninstalling a driver can accidentally cause critical system problems such as blue screen, device not working, and system crash. So, you should be very careful to check if the name and version of a driver is the right one that you want to uninstall. Besides, in order to reduce the risk of an unexpected problem during the driver uninstallation, we recommend you to create a system restore point and backup the driver before uninstalling a driver.
After scanning, Driver Booster will show
a list of drivers in category: Outdated,
UpToDate and mark faulty drivers out.
You can uninstall any drivers or update
the outdated, faulty and missing driver
with one click.
For any reason you want to uninstall a driver, you can try those 5 ways to uninstall unwanted drivers from all vendors like Nvidia, AMD, Intel, Dell, and HP. Way 01 and Way 02 uses Windows built-in tools while Way 03, 04, 05 are third-party driver tools which can help users uninstall drivers easily.
DriverEasy Professional updates and maintains your Windows PC's drivers automatically with a few easy steps. It scans your PC for out-of-date, missing, and mismatched drivers and downloads and installs up-to-date versions safely, thanks to automatic restore points and driver backups. You can schedule scans, install drivers one by one or all at once, remove drivers, and more.
Driver Backup and Driver Restore: The Driver Backup tool creates custom driver backup files that can be saved in folders or ZIP files. The Driver Restore tool uses them to roll back changes, if necessary.
Out-of-date drivers: A common complaint about driver update utilities is the occasional out-of-date driver, which can happen with a database of more than 3 million drivers (and for reasons beyond the software's scope or control). We recommend always creating restore points and backing up existing drivers in any case.
Users who don't want to do their own PC maintenance still want to keep their systems clean, safe, and up-to-date. DriverEasy Professional can contribute to that mission for a lot less than a computer tech would charge, simply to look at your PC.
Well, do you really need Driver Easy for driver updates? As far as we can see, the program is easy & safe to use. It also allows users to automatically create restore points before each update. If you want to update drivers more easily, you can give it a try.
In case of data loss, it is necessary to back up your computer. Here it is highly recommended that you try MiniTool Partition Wizard. It is a professional partition manager, skilled in disk management, disk backup, data recovery, and more.

Step 9: The software turns back to its main interface, from which you can see that there is a new partition layout on the target disk. Note that this is not over yet and you should click the Apply button to execute the pending changes.

Updating computer drivers can get rid of some issues, boost computer performance, and even improve computer stability. But this does not indicate that you should update all your drivers. There is a listing of the recommended drivers to update from Computer Hope.
Why is it that the Intel Driver & Support Assistant (Intel DSA) is not able to install all latest drivers in one Computer that works with INTEL technology? I have one DELL OptiPlex 5040 and with Intel Driver & Support Assistant (Intel DSA) I was not able to download all the latest drivers on my PC. Then I have to install some another makers driver updater software like Driver Easy, Driver Genius, Driver Booster, Auslogics Driver Updater etc. to update all my drivers to the latest version. I install different driver updater software because if one driver updater software cannot find the latest driver for one device, it can do the another one. I always after I format my Computer, I install some 10 driver updater software and then after I update all drivers and uninstall the software's I got the latest drivers and I am satisfied and my PC works lighting fast.
Why not concentrate and work and make the Intel Driver & Support Assistant (Intel DSA) find the latest drivers available for all Computers that work with INTEL technology and beat all another driver updater software makers? I mean if you install the drivers with Intel Driver & Support Assistant (Intel DSA) and then try to install drivers with software's like Driver Easy, Driver Genius, Driver Booster, Auslogics Driver Updater etc. this software's must say all your drivers are up to date and only then the Intel Driver & Support Assistant (Intel DSA) is working good as it should and as it was made to work.
You are creating for yourself a huge problem by using "Driver Easy, Driver Genius, Driver Booster, Auslogics Driver Updater etc." You never know what information they are collecting, to what country it is going, and what payloads their downloads may contain. It is only a matter of time before your system is compromised.
I also use the DELL Command Update, but it cannot find the latest drivers as the software's like Driver Easy, Driver Genius, Driver Booster, Auslogics Driver Updater etc. do. But after updating my drivers with software's like Driver Easy, Driver Genius, Driver Booster, Auslogics Driver Updater etc. I always uninstall those software's and I always do one virus scan on my Computer with Loaris Trojan Remover and Malwarebytes and different antivirus software's and they find the viruses that came with the driver updater software's and delete them and then my Computer is ok and it works perfectly and lighting fast because it has the latest drivers that exist in internet.
I would recommend to INTEL to work more and update the Intel Driver & Support Assistant (Intel DSA) software that when you update all drivers with this INTEL software and then do scans with another driver updater makers like Driver Easy, Driver Genius, Driver Booster, Auslogics Driver Updater etc. all this software's must say: All your drivers are up to date. Then the Intel Driver & Support Assistant (Intel DSA) software is in the best possible mode of working and updating drivers on Computers that work with INTEL technology.
I am saying this because I know, that the newer the drivers are the better the Computer's perform even the light on the monitor, with the latest drivers is better and all other things are better, if you have the latest INTEL made drivers in your Computer.
There are others that are obsessed with driver updating, and they eventually come here crying and begging for help because their system is corrupted or their data is lost, or something, caused by some driver obtained from somewhere.
I always do it my way and my Computer never gets corrupted because I do not touch the firmware's of anything, I only do update the drivers. In updating firmware's, I do not have knowledge and I always am afraid that if I try to update one firmware my Computer will get corrupt and the firmware's, I always leave as they are, as they came when the Computer was bought.
But, look at these attachments. Just look. My Computer is one DELL OptiPlex 5040 that was released in year 2016 and with Microsoft Windows Update and with DELL Command Update I would get all the time the drivers from the year 2016 or 2017 and with that, 10 different driver updater software's that I install always after I format my Computer and update the drivers and then I uninstall all those driver updater software's and then I scan my Computer with different antivirus software's to remove every virus that comes with the driver updater software and I got this: look at the attachments.
I am concerned because I want that IDSA can also find all system device from the year 2019 drivers not only Auslogics Driver Updater that is not an INTEL software. This is what I do not find it right. The Intel Driver & Support Assistant (Intel DSA) says you have the best latest drivers and they are from the year 2017, but when I install the Auslogics Driver Updater software it finds the latest 2019 drivers for my system and the later the drivers are the better they are because they come out with bug fixes and another fixes, that year 2016 drivers were not so good and then INTEL then makes new, year 2019 drivers that are better than those old year 2016 drivers.
These drivers in attachment pictures you cannot find and install with Intel Driver & Support Assistant (Intel DSA) software and this is what INTEL must fix, the Intel Driver & Support Assistant (Intel DSA) must find always the latest drivers for Computers with INTEL technology.
@sstrellYou are correct. It has nothing to do with FPGAs. But, IDSA does not have a home (by design), so users usually post anywhere. A moderator will probably move this to either the processor or graphic forum, where most of the IDSA posts seem to pool.
Please be aware that Intel DSA was designed for Intel products such as Intell NUCs, you have an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) system, which should be using the Driver Assistant made by the OEM. Most OEMs have their own Driver Assistant and Dell is not the exception.
Also, Since you have an OEM system, we recommend checking with your Original Equipment Manufacturer and using the driver software provided by them to avoid potential installation incompatibilities. Intel supplies generic versions of Graphics/Wireless Drivers for general purposes. Computer manufacturers might have changed the features, incorporated customizations, or made other changes to the graphics driver software or software packaging.
