Driver Booster is a must-to-have utility designed to update all outdated drivers on Windows. As we all know, those obsolete drivers may adversely affect the PC performance and even cause system crashes. Developed by IObit, Driver Booster provides the best one-click solution to rapidly and securely update outdated drivers, install missing drivers, and fix incorrect drivers. Apart from updating drivers, Driver Booster also introduces several powerful tools to increase the system compatibility and stability.

What makes Driver Booster so attractive?

  • Fully Supported Windows 11 and ARM64As soon as Microsoft introduced Windows 11, IObit ensured Driver Booster fully supports it. It now also supports Windows 10/11 ARM64 devices, covering a wider range of PCs and tablets and ensuring driver updates work seamlessly across all systems.
  • Very Large Driver Database (18,000,000+ and growing)Driver Booster provides millions of certified drivers from official websites or Windows, all passing WHQL and IObit Review Rules. With this expanded database, you can update even the latest devices—including AMD Radeon AI PRO series and Intel Core Ultra—without worrying about system or security problems.
  • Automatically Scan and UpdateCreate a scheduler to scan at fixed intervals or at each Windows startup. The “Automatically update drivers while the system is idle” feature frees you from checking drivers manually. Updates now include AI‑related drivers and the latest game drivers for titles like Counter‑Strike 2 and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, improving system and gaming performance.
  • Powerful ToolsDriver Booster provides advanced tools to fix common PC issues such as no sound, bad resolution, network failure, or device errors. With AI‑enhanced driver support and optimized engine performance, these tools fix problems faster and more reliably than ever.
  • Mighty Backup & RestoreTo minimize potential issues from driver updates, Driver Booster backs up all drivers and creates system restore points. You can reverse updates or restore your system, now with higher installation success rates and faster recovery thanks to engine optimizations.
  • Offline Driver UpdaterFor computers without internet, especially newly installed Windows systems, Driver Booster offers Offline Driver Updater. This ensures driver problems can be fixed even without a connection, supporting more devices than before.
  • Ultimate Gaming ExperienceDriver Booster boosts gaming performance by providing necessary game drivers, optimizing system resources with Game Boost, and now including support for the latest games. Updates for AI and GPU drivers, along with improved scan and installation engines, further enhance both stability and speed, giving gamers a smoother and faster experience.

IOBit's Driver Booster analyzes your PC for out-of-date drivers -- and updates them with a click. Cloud-based resources track the latest updates. Driver Booster is available in two versions: Driver Booster Free, which can automatically identify new updates and install them individually or all at once, and Driver Booster Pro, which does all that and more, including offering licenses and technical support for up to three computers. We tried Driver Booster Free in Windows 7.
