BACKUP ALL YOUR SOFWARE AND HARDWARE DRIVERS TO BE SAFE...

There is a very useful and free program, " DOUBLE DRIVER", which will allow you to backup all the drivers that you have hidden in your computer.

All of these drivers that you may not even know about, are required for proper operation of your software programs and most importantly, all the pieces of hardware which are connected to your computer. such as printers, flash drives, external drives etc.They can disappear or get corrupted and I bet if that happens, you probably do not know where to find the originals or even know how to re-install them.

One of the main reasons why you would want to collect installed drivers is if you don’t have the Driver CD that came with the computer or they are unavailable online. This comes in quite handy if you purchase a computer and want to backup the initial set of drivers. It can be quite difficulty for example to find drivers for hardware installed in a notebook if the operating system has to be setup again. Luckily Double Driver can now lend you a hand with that and save you a lot of time.

Double Driver is a very simple and useful tool which not only allows you to view all the drivers installed on your system but also allows you to backup, restore, save and print all chosen drivers.

Double Driver analyzes your system and lists the most important driver details such as version, date, provider, etc. All drivers that are found can easily be backed up the application and easily restored at a later point in one go.

Double Driver is freeware. Feel free to use and give this program to anyone you know. Your donation or feedback would be greatly appreciated.

To download and install this program go to:

When you run the program, a screen opens and gives you the choice, (when you click the "backup" choice), to scan your entire system. When this is finished, (it does not take more than a few seconds), it shows you a complete list of all the drivers installed in your computer; click the "Backup now" button on the lower left side of the screen. All the drivers are then backed up in a file called "double driver back up", (what else?), under the Documents folder in your computer.

Should you need to re-install any driver, all you have to do is select the drivers from the list and then click the choice "restore". That's all!, all the drivers selected will be restored in no time flat.

I strongly recommend that you all install this program in your computer. It is free and can save you lots of aggravation.

Have a good week-end,
