DriverView: Super quick list of all the drivers installed on your PC

Figuring out if your PC's drivers are all up to date can be a bit of a hassle. You could go into the Windows Device Manager, find the appropriate hardware, select update driver and see if anything new comes up. But it would take forever to do this for every single driver you might want to update.

On the other hand, you could run DriverView, a lightweight executable file that quickly scans your PC and returns a list of every driver and its version number. You can double-click on any driver to bring up more detailed information, save the entire list as a text file, or use the search option to find a specific driver.

DriverView won't download updated drivers for you, but if you want to quickly find out drivers are installed on your computer, this is probably the fastest way. Then you can visit the website for your hardware or software to see if there's a new version of your drivers available.
