Download Avg Driver Updater
Selene Bulger
Although this program limits the number of downloads you can perform per day, you can still check for outdated drivers as often as you want. You're just limited when it comes to downloading them. I talk more in the review about why this isn't as bad of a limit as it might sound.
Driver Booster will quickly spot broken and outdated drivers and finds the exact up-to-date match for the system and devices. The driver database supports more than 6.5 million devices & drivers from 1200+ major brands. Besides, driver sources are all officially from the original hardware manufacturers and have passed the Microsoft WHQL test and IObit test.
Driver Booster provides a safe and stable display driver uninstaller to completely uninstall AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics card drivers, and remove all traces of display driver leftovers. If you want entirely new driver installation, delete drivers that are causing issues, or upgrade GPU from AMD to Nvidia, this driver removal is a must-have.
"Iobit's Driver Booster is the best software available. I have been using all the Iobit Driver Boosters and other Iobit software for many years now. Driver Booster finds outdated drivers for my laptop's and along with using other Iobit software keeps my systems running smoothly. As usual Iobit does it again with a great software that is innovated with new technology to keep my laptop's running at their best."
"One scan a day keeps outdated drivers away. Instead of looking individually for drives updates; just one click on Driver Booster can keep all of my pc's drivers up-to-date! Driver Booster improved my gaming experience especially when it comes to demanding games that needs the latest updates. IObit products showed me the true capability of my pc."
"I was having all sorts of problems with my laptop, finally realizing that it was caused by the drivers. Despite going through all the channels my laptop brand provides I was still having problems. One click of Driver Booster and it found 17 (long) outdated drivers and fixed them just as quickly. My driver problems have disappeared and my laptop is running much better! I will use no other program for my driver needs."
Excellent option for budget/conscious peeps who need a useful driver update utility, beats most of the competition when it comes to extra features and services, such as a game booster, updating game components, and offline driver updates* A solid performer providing consistency and reliability!
I always keep it running while playing because of its "Game Boost" feature, which actually helps in performance, mainly so that your computer focuses its resources on the game you're playing. It's also useful for updating your drivers every few weeks, which you could do manually, but why would you?
Driver updates for Windows, along with many devices, such as network adapters, monitors, printers, and video cards, are automatically downloaded and installed through Windows Update. You probably already have the most recent drivers, but if you'd like to manually update or reinstall a driver, here's how:
LAC. If you cannot get the Driver Updater to uninstall, follow this Microsoft article to perform a "system restore", using a restore point PRIOR to installing driver updater. Use the second link and follow the instructions in the area labeled "Restore from a system restore point". When the recovery is successful DO NOT reinstall nor use Driver Updater. The same scenario will more likely than not reappear if you do.
I currently utilize a scheduled task to run ccleaner and have a custom ccleaner.ini built. What I cannot figure out is how to disable the driver updater feature in the ccleaner.ini file. Does anyone have any information regarding this? I do not want the driver updater to run at all, it continues to update my laptop display drivers on two of my gaming machines and messes up the nvidia drivers that auto switch my display from intel to nvidia. I have tried to open the program and unselect drivers but it doesn't seem to hold, so I am just looking to disable this feature all together and be done with this headache.
CCleaners Driver Updater will not run unless you click on it and then scan/update your drivers. Don't click on it and it will never run.
CCleaners Driver Updater will only update drivers if you tell it to do so in the CCleaner Pro version, it will not update drivers in the CCleaner Free version.
If something is updating your drivers automatically then it is not CCleaner.
It might be Windows Update, or it might be some other Driver Updater that you have installed. (Maybe accidentally?).
The issue with opening up firewall permissions, is I have them blocked for a reason. It's not worth it to allow microsoft's electric eye to shine its pale malevolent glow on me, just for a simple updater tool.
Same happened to me too. It took ages to run the Driver updater for the 5 drivers announced, next thing I see is that a new start was started (without my ok) and then a blue screen, which I couldn't get out of.
I paid for a pro version especially to get the driver updater, but this gave me more grief than I needed at that particular time. You have obviously bitten off more than you can chew. Never again. I feel I have been cheated.
Yes, the driver updater has an unpleasant habit of ignoring the fact that some of the updates require immediate restarts. It just keeps grinding away. This means that one gets the NBA (Nasty Blue Screen) at restart, and the only way back is to re-install Windows 10 and rebuild the PC from scratch. This has happened to me twice in the past week. The only work-around is to run the updates one at a time, which is very time-consuming, and certainly no better than any of the free tools that allow one-at-a-time installation of multiple driver updates.
yeah BIFF same thing happened to me...... My Toughbook Panasonic Military Laptop CF-31 MK4 both are bricked. After being on CCleaner for thousands of years, I was hesitant to install CCLeaner on my Military Laptops, but after installing CCleaner updated all my drivers through Microsoft, I used their CCleaner New Update Driver Program ... said it needed to update 21 drivers, Wuuuuuut ? Seriously
So I opted to use that service after accepting the 14 day trial. It started updating all my 21 drivers I needed, after reset my Supervisor Password was changed. I know my password because I've been using the same password for 20 years, and I know I'm not stupid, my password doesn't work anymore so I know for 1,000 % fact that CCLeaner changed my Supervisor PWD. But CCleaner says no !!!! and after reading your issue regarding your computer being BRICKED. Man what a relief ... so I know I'm not lying or stupid. CCleaner has to believe me now because I have $2K worth of laptops just sitting here BRICKED, it's so upsetting to the point I'm trying to calm myself after these engineers are telling me that's impossible. Well you know in the computer world impossible can be possible. Not all software's are perfect in any which way.
It's upsetting ... my blood is boiling, I know my password and I know CCleaner is responsible for this problem they have with their UPDATE DRIVER program. I hope they fix it .... if they can't at least send me 2 BIOS Chips at $24.00 ea. and I'll fix it myself and replace the BIOS with a non password. Then I'll shut up and not bad mouth CCleaner for their software mistake. Coders aren't perfect.

Hi Lageeks, CCleaner could not help me at all. Whatever got into my desktop during the CCleaner driver update managed to get into my laptop because of my stupidity in using a flash drive between them in an attempt to fix the desktop. I had to take it into a computer repair shop and luckily I had a complete backup on a separate hard drive but it cost me near $200. The laptop was a hopeless case so I just switched it over to Linux.
