Driver Reviver is a driver maintenance tool by ReviverSoft, since a subsidiary of Corel. It makes a wide range of other Reviver branded software products for both the PC and the Apple Mac, although this one is exclusively for the PC. What it aims to do is keep the drivers on the system concurrent, and avoid the system accidentally installing corrupt or malware-infected drivers.
One feature that we liked was that it creates a restore point before installing drivers. Enabling the system to be restored more easily, should the new drivers cause a problem. ReviverSoft claims that its driver database contains over 10 million files. Whatever the exact truth, its driver database is very comprehensive. As the title suggests, this is the twentieth version of Driver Genius , by Avanquest Software.
What Avanquest offers is a small but effective tool that manages driver updates on the PC that tracks more than a million hardware drivers to make sure that the right ones are on your computer. The level of user intervention is very low, as this solution is practically fire-and-forget. Once installed, the application scans the drivers installed and matches these against a driver versioning database, and then downloads and installs the latest ones.
And, it notifies you of new driver releases. What makes this one stands out is that it will bundle all the drivers into an executable file for you, a facility that accelerates the reinstalling of a system dramatically. This Platinum release has a few extras, including a system booster that tweaks a system for greater performance and another tool that optimizes SSDs. IObit is a software house that has created several enhancement and optimisation products that includes Driver Booster in its roster.
