Used DriverExtractor for Windows?

This tool extracts driver files from your system into a safe directory, but most users may find it feature-poor. DriverExtractor's straightforward interface resembles your Windows Device Manager. The program displays all found drivers in a standard tree list. You can easily choose to view Windows and Non-Windows drivers separately. Quickly view the properties of each device driver with a click of a toolbar button. DriverExtractor efficiently saves your driver files to a backup directory. It also provides quick access to system properties and the Add New Hardware dialog box. However, the backup function falls short because it lacks compression and encryption. Also, merely presenting a shortcut to Windows Add New Hardware feature does not constitute a re-install feature. Users searching for a complete driver backup and reinstall utility will pass on this one.
