    NirSoft DriverView shows different driver version than Device Manager


    Windows 10 Home 21H2 19044.1706
    DriverView 1.50

    For some items, DriverView reports a different driver version than what Device Manager reports.
    Any idea why the difference?

    EDIT: I think I see the reason. Device Manager reports the driver version, whereas for some items DriverView reports the file version (which you can find in Device Manager by clicking on "Driver Details" button under the Driver tab.
    I think Device Manager is more correct here, or at least more useful.

    Could you provide some examples? Screenshots might be particularly useful in this instance.

    Thanks!
