Download SlimDrivers / DriverUpdate for Windows 10

SlimDrivers is a nifty piece of software that can help you keep download, install, and update drivers on your system in a jiffy. Long gone are the days of downloading and installing each driver manually.

With tools such as SlimDrivers, you just have to run the utility and let it perform an assessment scan. After the scan is done, it will tell you everything you need. Driver-wise, of course.

More so, you can also perform backups, remove obsolete drivers from your system, and restore previously created backups. Thus, SlimDrivers is not just your regular driver installer utility.

You can think of it as a fully-fledged driver manager.

How to download and install SlimDrivers?

Better yet, where to download SlimDrivers? Although the download link is pretty much still kicking, there’s no product page on the developer’s website or another way you can reach it.

On the bright side, we’ve managed to locate a working URL, but note that it might not work for much longer. SlimDrivers has been out of support for a couple of years now.

How to install SlimDrivers?

1. Download the SlimDrivers installer (*)
2. Locate the executable on your computer
3. Launch it and follow the on-screen instructions
4. Watch out for the recommended additional software
5. Click Finish once you’re done

Note that, unlike other programs, SlimDrivers doesn’t offer to install software from other developers. The tools it recommends during installation are proprietary, so there’s nothing to worry about.

Even so, you might not need additional utilities on your PC, so make sure you don’t accidentally deploy them by not paying attention to the installer.

(*) – Unfortunately, SlimDrivers is obsolete, but you can still download it and install it on your PC. However, if you’d like a new, improved version of it, you should check out DriverUpdate, from the same developer.

How to download and install DriverUpdate?

1. Visit the slimware website
2. Click the Download button
3. Wait for the download to complete
4. Locate the installer executable on your PC
5. Double-click to launch it
6. Follow the on-screen instructions
7. Pay attention not to accidentally install additional software
8. Click Finish once you’re done

That’s it, the installation process is similar to its older counterpart, SlimDrivers. Nevertheless, make sure not to accidentally deploy any additional software solutions on your PC if you don’t need them.
