“Export and reinstall your PC drivers easily”

by Nick Mead about DriverMax

Backing up your drivers is one of the best things you can do to your PC - if the worst happens, DriverMax lets you restore damaged and corrupt drivers in seconds.

In most cases when Windows is running slower, faulty driver installations are to blame. The problem is that Windows automatically stores versions of older drivers just in case you want to roll back but sometimes it these conflict with the new ones.

Drivermax basically backs-up and restores driver in a very attractive and well presented interface. It has a powerful export wizard to help you export the drivers you need to backup by copying the required files to a folder or compressed ZIP file. After reinstalling Windows, the program can ensure that all drivers are reinstalled within 5 minutes according to the developers.

While the process is nowhere near this quick - or straightforward because many drivers may not work properly first time round due to the special way they need to be installed - it is on the whole very easy to use and efficient. It certainly saves you the hours of searching and installing that you'd usually have to go through.

The Import Drivers wizard is similarly straightforward and will take up to 10 minutes depending on how much you've got installed on your PC.

A powerful driver installation and restore tool that is easy enough for beginners and does the job in decent time.

Pros
  • Imports and exports drivers easily
  • Attractive wizards and interface
Cons
  • Can take some time to perform backups and exports
  • may not reinstall all drivers correctly

    DriverMax is responsible for saving the sound on my computer. After using DriverEasy to install an outdated driver, I lost sound and couldn't back up using the program. I then installed DriverMax.... More

    In the past I would have given this a 10 as nothing else was even close. But now that SlimDrivers is out with no limitations and everything done within the app itself, it's hard to justify using... More
