Driver Genius 11.0.0.1112

A solid driver management tool that relieves frustration.

It's never fun searching high and low for an old driver CD when you reinstall your operating system. If you can't find it,you are often in for a long time on the internet, trying to find a suitable driver. With a database of over 60,000 drivers and automatic options for the updating, restoration and back-up of your existing drivers, Driver Genius can be very helpful.

However, the program is not perfect, as it can misidentify drivers as out of date or fully up to date when they are not. In addition, frequent prompts to enter the licence key interrupt the programs use and can be annoying.

Pros: It is easy to install and has an intuitive interface. It has a large driver database and is quick to run.

Cons: It may sometimes read a driver as being updated when a newer version is available or read a driver as being out of date when the newest version is installed. Frequent requests for the licence key can be frustrating.

Conclusion: The program is certainly easy to use, with an intuitive and clear interface. Its large driver database means that it can be very helpful for finding drivers and updates. However, as a comprehensive tool that is a one stop shop for all driver needs it is not quite up to the task, sometimes giving inaccurate information about the status of some drivers.
