FAQs

You can update Windows 11 drivers manually by downloading the latest version from the manufacturer’s website or through the Windows 11 Device Manager. But manual updates can be time-consuming and risky. Installing the wrong driver could cause crashes or device issues. Avast Driver Updater does the work for you, finding the latest drivers from a verified database and keeping your PC running smoothly.

You can easily use a trusted driver updater like Avast Driver Updater. It includes a database of millions of drivers, identifies the best ones for your PC, and notifies you when updates are ready to install.

This error often appears when a printer or accessory like a scanner or speaker is missing a driver or has one that’s installed incorrectly. If you're experiencing the printer driver unavailable error, Avast Driver Update with a built-in driver checker tool can scan your PC, detect missing or faulty drivers, and help you install secure, working updates.

Avast Driver Updater is one of the best Windows driver updater software. We detect outdated, corrupt, vulnerable, or missing drivers by scanning your Windows PC against our database of 70 million drivers. Then we help you update your graphics driversaudio drivers, and more to the most advantageous versions. Avast is also one of the world’s biggest and most trusted cybersecurity brands, which means we do our best to ensure our software offers a high standard of both security and performance.

Updating drivers can cause problems in two situations:

  1. You try to update a driver manually and you don’t know what you’re doing. This is particularly likely if you try to manually update a driver with the wrong update, circumventing Microsoft’s own automatic driver search detailed in question three.
  2. If the manufacturer of the driver accidentally released a flawed update for their driver that introduces more problems than it fixes, or has other unforeseen bugs and incompatibilities.


Fortunately, Avast Driver Updater can help in both of these instances: our automatic scans and updates help prevent human error, and our unique driver rollback feature allows us to quickly undo driver updates you made with Avast Driver Updater that are problematic, bringing you back to an older, more stable version of the driver.

It’s not impossible that updating your GPU’s driver will improve your frames per second (FPS), but any improvement will likely be small, and unlikely to vastly improve your gaming or your PC’s performance. This is because drivers generally fix issues and bugs, and device performance is largely dependent on hardware.

So while Avast Driver Updater can help, if you really want to improve your FPS, we suggest overclocking your GPU.
