Scan, find, update
DriverIdentifier is a free software utility that detects outdated or missing drivers on Windows-based systems. Its primary function is to scan hardware components and generate a detailed list of necessary driver updates. It's compatible with Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10, supporting both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures.
DriverIdentifier includes an extensive driver database, offline scanning capability, and a straightforward user interface. It provides downloadable reports of identified drivers and offers direct links to official driver sources, to help match hardware with the correct drivers. It’s a standalone application for system compatibility and hardware identification across various device types.
DriverIdentifier scans installed hardware components and compares driver versions against its large database. It generates a report in HTML format, allowing users to view and access links to the most recent driver versions online. It has an offline scan mode, which saves system details into a file for later uploading to an internet-connected device. This is useful in situations where network drivers are missing. It is a lightweight application that consumes minimal memory and CPU during operation. Scans typically complete in under a minute on standard hardware configurations. The software does not require an active internet connection during the scan process, but downloading updates requires online access. As it does not include driver files internally, the overall file size remains small, making it suitable for use on devices with limited storage or bandwidth.
