DriverGuide Toolkit software is a tool that allows users to identify and list the drivers installed on their computer and, if connected to the Internet, check for driver updates on the Internet. In addition, it allows you to make backup copies of installed drivers so that they are available in case you need to reinstall them or the entire operating system. It also organizes the driver files in a user-specified location.

This software is especially useful in situations where you have a computer whose internal hardware is unknown. Since it can identify the system hardware and associated drivers, back them up to a specified location, and check for the latest driver updates. DriverGuide Toolkit also supports networking, so it is possible to connect to a remote computer on the network and perform backups and search for driver updates.

It is worth mentioning that DriverGuide Toolkit is discontinued and the latest version is compatible with Windows Vista. This should be taken into account when evaluating the software. Although it is discontinued and the latest version is compatible only with Windows Vista, it can still be useful for troubleshooting common driver problems.

It has two versions: free and paid. In the free version, you can view installed drivers and devices, get detailed system information, identify unknown devices and search using keywords. In the paid version, in addition to these features, you can check for driver updates, access more than 400,000 drivers and 3,000 manufacturers, perform research on device manufacturers, backup and restore drivers, compare installed and backed-up drivers, scan devices and drivers remotely on network computers, and automatically check for program updates.

This software helps troubleshoot the most common driver problems. For example, in case of a lost or missing driver, this tool allows backing up drivers to a specific location so that they can be reinstalled if necessary. When updating the operating system, backup copies of previously installed drivers are lost, so it is crucial to make backup copies before performing this update. DriverGuide Toolkit allows you to do this with a single click.

If you have ever searched for drivers, this tool is essential. Also, if you have an unknown device in Device Manager (marked with a yellow question mark), this software can extract detailed information about the device and try to determine what it is, and it also allows you to check for driver updates for it. If a device is not working correctly or is missing some functions, it may be due to a corrupt or deficient driver, so it is necessary to check for a driver update. Before doing so, you must make a backup copy of the current driver, which you can easily do.
