Device drivers are essential computer programs that allow your computer to interact with all the devices attached to it. Snappy Driver Installer is also an essential open-source tool that will help you to keep all the drivers on your computer constantly updated and to locate, download, and install any driver missing from your PC due to a system failure or a clean Windows installation.

The program opens a clear interface that is both easy to read and navigate. Its oversize fonts help you move around the list of missing or outdated driver packages in a comfortable way, and only if you want to know every detail about a specific driver, you’ll have to strain your eyes to read the overwhelming amount of information provided.

The program will detect which drivers your computer needs and will offer to download all the packages that will enhance your PC’s interaction with all its peripherals or strictly those that your computer does need. This is one of the features that make Snappy Driver Installer stand out from most of its competitors, as not many similar tools offer technicians the possibility of choosing among various drivers for the installed peripherals. Once downloaded, all packages are neatly listed on the program’s main window, and you can inspect their contents easily just by selecting any of them. As said, comprehensive technical information about each program is also available just be hovering on a driver with your mouse. more

Unfortunately, I couldn't get this to work. Said I needed something to open it and it wouldn't show me what I needed. Took hours to get it opened and then it wouldn't do anything when clicking on autorun and all the other things...

No instructions on how to use it, total garbage. What the cluck is the point of open source if you don't explain how to use it.

I've been updating an old Dell with XP o/s. OMG, it's been a headache. I picked a few at once, installed them after the restore point. Not one glitch, only missing one driver, but I can live without it. I've downloaded 5 driver installer tools, only to find that they do not install them freely. Your program was the only one! Thank you for resolving my issues! (Only thing is the pop up windows after each installation is closed so quickly I couldn't read it.) Thanks again!
