Comments and Reviews
Installer downloads garbage software, without prompt, runs many updater.exe stray processes. Driver update detects non-existing devices. Generally, UI looks like other fake software.
The installer of Free Driver Scout contains other unnecessary softwares and is not clear: no text, just colored buttons!
Moreover, after the scan, I tried to update a driver listed in outdated drivers: the message "driver updated" appeared after one second (too soon?), no downloads and the driver didn't change.
This program seems a joke.
