For Windows 7 and earlier, reinstalling the system means you have reinstall all the hardware drivers too, which is a head-scratching trouble for most computer users. Even though Windows 8.1 began to support automatic drivers installation and update, the version of driver files provided by Microsoft are always too conservative and outdated to give full play to the performance of most hardware on a new computer.

Driver Easy is a driver management program, developed by Easeware Technology from Hong Kong, in China. Compared to similar applications, Driver Easy completely takes the simple and practical line. As a result, you’ll find it comes with very small file size, clean and elegant user interface, fast updates, as well as a continuously updated driver database with nearly a million records.

Driver Easy can help you quickly detect, download and install the missed, incorrect or outdated driver files for all kinds of hardware devices, and has relevant features like driver backup/restore, driver uninstall (removing the drivers of all hardware that has been removed can improve Windows startup speed, and avoid driver conflicts), offline scan (thus you can easily find the appropriate network adapter driver for an offline computer), as well as the basic hardware information display, etc. In summary, Driver Easy’s powerful driver database ensures that all drivers in your computer can stay up to date and reliable.
