DriverMax aims to take a load off your shoulders by handling the driver update process for you. This program works with tons of different drivers, supporting over 2,300,000 devices. It's made to be user-friendly, even though its design might feel a bit outdated. 

DriverMax is compatible with a broad range of Windows operating systems, including everything from Windows XP to the latest, Windows 11. It's handy for pretty much anyone who uses a computer, whether you're taking care of your own device or managing a bunch at work. When you open DriverMax, you'll notice right away that its design feels a little old. But don't let that put you off; what it lacks in looks, it makes up for in functionality. The interface is straightforward, with clear options for scanning your system for outdated drivers, updating them, and even backing them up in case something goes wrong. 

DriverMax has the ability to automate nearly everything. You can set it up to look for updates at specific times, so you're always running the latest drivers without having to think about it. If you're worried about updates causing problems, DriverMax has a solution for that too. It creates restore points before installing new drivers, so if anything does go sideways, you can roll back to how things were. 

There's a free version that's pretty generous with its features, though it does limit how many updates you can do daily. If you find yourself needing more, there's a paid version available. This version doesn't just lift the limits on updates; it also introduces some additional features that might be worth it if you're an advanced user or managing multiple computers. 

The latest update to DriverMax has expanded its reach, now supporting even more devices and being compatible with a wider range of Windows versions. It doesn't matter if your PC is newer or older; chances are, DriverMax can help keep it updated.

Bottom Line

Download, update, back up, or restore Windows drivers and boost overall PC productivity. It works with a lot of different drivers for more than 2,300,000 devices, fitting both old and new versions of Windows, from XP up to Windows 11. While its look could be fresher, it’s made to be easy to navigate. Everything you need to update drivers, back them up, or get things back to how they were is right there. It’s great for almost any Windows PC. DriverMax has features that can help keep things running smoothly.

Developer’s Description

Download, update, back up, or restore Windows drivers and boost overall PC productivity.

DriverMax is a powerful free utility which helps you download, update, backup and restore the drivers installed on your Windows PC. It automatically checks for more recent driver versions and identifies and installs missing drivers for unknown devices in your computer.

Download all drivers from one place in just a few easy steps and keep your PC up to date. Backup drivers and keep all of them in one compressed file; restore them at a mouse click within a few minutes. This tool will save you a lot of time when reinstalling Windows, both on recent PCs and older computers for which the original CDs containing the drivers have been lost. You no longer have to track down old driver installation CDs, insert one installation CD after another or spend hours searching for drivers on the Internet. DriverMax is able to display a detailed report about all installed drivers (versions, release dates) and provide you with Windows Experience Index rating information before you purchase new hardware.
