SlimDrivers automatically updates PC drivers with real-time scanning and cloud technology. SlimDrivers provides instant optimization of the interaction between a computer and its system components and periperhals, such as printers, graphic and sound cards, motherboards, USB ports, game controllers and other devices and hardware. SlimDrivers scans a PC, identifies the correct drivers needed, and retrieves them from the cloud, automatically installing the most current, precise drivers for each individual PC.SlimDrivers is a maintenance program for your Windows’ drivers. It supposedly works with a social cloud engine (meaning data is collected from a crowd of users, and not a central, unique source, database). It supposedly tells you if your drivers are out of date and repairs any driver-related errors.
I stressed the “supposedly” because there is a general lack of information in this program.
As other Slimware products, there is a very simple and clean interface. With one button you scan your system, then you get a list of problematic drivers. You should update each one. There are also several other options, like uninstall drivers, restore (another name for “undo”), or backup, allowing you to backup all your drivers.
Throughout the whole process you are kept completely in the dark regarding vital information, such as which driver version is installed and which one SlimDriver suggests as the most recent one; where the driver will be downloaded from; and what part of the program uses (and how it is uses) the advertised technology of crowd sourcing. more
