Why on earth would anybody install "driver" software that is supposed to
"find" "updated" drivers? If nothing is malfunctioning there is no need to
monitor what drivers are installed, and if the computer is malfunctioning, you
just go to the website of the hardware maker and download the latest driver.
Sheesh....

When my computer malfunctions, I just clean my registry with a
featherduster spritzed with furniture polish.
