You have three options for updating drivers:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>1. Manufacturer&#8217;s Website<br \/>\n2. Device Manager<br \/>\n3. Advanced Driver Updater<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s go over each option:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Manufacturer&#8217;s Website<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This option requires you to visit the official website of your device&#8217;s manufacturer and search for the appropriate drivers using your PC\u2019s model number. Once you find the drivers, download and install them manually.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While effective, this method can be time-consuming and requires some technical knowledge, making it less popular among most users.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Device Manager<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Device Manager is an inbuilt tool in Windows.

In the open window, find the driver you want to update, right-click it, and select <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Update Driver<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This method is semi-automatic but limited: it can only search for updates from Microsoft\u2019s servers, meaning you might not get the most up-to-date drivers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Advanced Driver Updater<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This third-party tool scans your system for outdated, missing, or corrupted drivers.
