    Looking at the video description on youtube, it shows this disclaimer :

    Also read thru the comments section to see all the problems this has caused.

    i don't use any third party tools to update drivers. Typically, I get drivers right from the MFG when I install the OS. After that, the only one I regularly update is my video card. Unless I have an issue that's fixed by a driver update, i just leave it alone.

    A quick google search shows many sites pushing the same type of thing.
    Don't forget, they all make money pushing certain ones, good or bad.

    I have CCleaner Pro and have been using the driver updater to grab some drivers for
    my new DELL laptop.. seems to be working ok... I haven't had any BSOD or update issues...

    plus I also use Windows update and DELL Update app..
    only driver that is not as up to date as on my ASUS mobo main desktop PC build is the

    Realtek UAD audio drivers on my DELL laptop.

    desktop PC = Realtek UAD_ASUS_ROG-PRIME-TUF_RTK_MB_v6.0.9282.1
    DELL gaming laptop = v6.0.9257.1 (updated via CCleaner, I had trouble finding a driver elsewhere.)


    CCleaner's driver updater is trying to push some outdated drivers as newer then what I have so I skipped those..
    on my ASUS mobo desktop PC.

    Seems like a lot of conversation about another dubious post by the op.

    I do tend to totally agree with you after looking back at his previous posts.

    I don't use third party apps or sites to update my drivers. And I certainly don't use CCleaner. That's me

    I usually give software like CCleaner a wide berth....the latest drivers are not always the best. If it ain't broke don't fix it.
