How do we manually install drivers in Windows

Sometimes when we make a Resettlement SystemHappens that some drivers is not installed by default (usually drivers NICs) Or not found and installed via Windows Update. Also, when you connect a external device (or terminal) to the computer with WindowsThe system tries to install drivers for its correct functioning, but there are cases in which the drivers are not found. In such situations, the easiest would be to have a disc with drivers necessary for the system or external devices used, but if we do not provide these drivers, the next option is to search onlineon official pages but by hardware manufacturers requiring such drivers.

Most often, media devices containing the drivers needed for system configuration allow its installation in the form of setup. Also, each driver separately is usually a setup file you can install it as executable. But the fairest way to install drivers in Windows is:

  • in Search site from Start Menu or Start Screen enter device manager and give Enter
  • then right click on each component for which you have a driver (both those who already have drivers installed, and those who do not have drivers installed) and select Update Driver Software menu displayed
device-manager
  • then select Browse my computer for driver software
update- software driver
  • and navigate to the media device (or folder) that contains the drivers, then click on Next
browser for driver
  • after the driver is installed, it will display Windows has succeeded updated your driver software

If you do not have a drivers disk media necessary system and have some drivers that were not found or installed Windows Update for some hardware, go to the official websites of manufacturers of such components and download compatible drivers (Beware, they must coincides with OS, And with architecture its - 32 bit or 64 bit). If you do not know who is the manufacturer of a component without the driver in the system, right click on it in Device Manager, select Properties> DetailsThen select Hardware Ids drop-down menu below Property.
