The built-in Windows 10 update includes scanning software, but it may not be comprehensive enough for optimal performance. You might want to explore a dedicated driver management tool to ensure your drivers are up-to-date and running smoothly. This will help you avoid potential issues and maximize your PC's capabilities.
Perform the Windows update process. It is less prone to complications.
For my PC I rely on a few key sources: OS, CPU/Chipset, GPU, motherboard, and OEM-only updates. I use Windows Update regularly, Nvidia Drivers Center for graphics, Intel Download Center for processors, and MSI’s driver pages. On my XPS 13 I stick to Dell-specific drivers rather than generic Intel or Realtek ones. Updates are handled automatically via Windows Update, with deeper checks done occasionally—once a month or every two months.
No such thing exists. I haven't encountered any driver update solutions that function properly or are fraudulent. Windows 10 generally handles most drivers well, except for your GPU and chipset. The ones I get from AMD, nVidia, or my motherboard maker can work, but laptops tend to be simpler—still, I sometimes prefer the manufacturer's site over Windows' limitations.
Up to now, the GPU remains the only component requiring regular driver updates. The rest tend to be simpler—just install and leave it alone.
