Does windows have a built in driver checker.

TazerXI

I want to know if all my drivers are up to date, and am not sure how many online utilities (I believe harware info has a link to one or something), and wondered if there is one built into windows. If there isn't then I think it could be a good idea for microsoft, and getting people to update drivers through windows, (for small things such as updates for some random part of your PC, I use GeForce experience for GPU and others for printers and stuff if you know what I mean) or link to where you can get the drivers. It would be quite nice

The drivers for your various devices can be found from the manufacturers support page of each respective device. Also, your motherboards support page has a lot of drivers for all your onboard devices.

 

90% of the time Windows Update takes care of it but for instance, just recently I wanted to make sure I was running the latest Realtek software for my onboard audio. Checked the support page for my motherboard and it had a newer version.
