When your computer burns with Fire and full HELL begins in your life - remember about this software and about the backup that you made on the right day and at the right hour! And with the help of it you will receive light in the Heavens!

This program can backup and restore your drivers and work with them, it’s simple, with user-friendly interface and fairly extensive functionality!

Of course, the free version of this program has an incomplete set of all that rainbow of possibilities that the Premium version has! Therefore, you can register using my unique pre-installation link for this program and get 1 month of Premium status for free!

Remember the first commandment of any system administrator!
Create a Backup of your data and, of course, make a backup of your system and drivers!

As you can read below, my original review was negative, but Treexy came through with the missing functionality and I can now recommend it as a one-stop driver management solution. The latest version now scans your PC for missing or outdated drivers, offers to download and install the new drivers (you can choose which ones you want), and then does so with one click, creating a system restore point before applying the changes. Optionally, and by default, it will back up your current drivers before making any changes as a double protection, and restoring the drivers through Driver Fusion is less dangerous than reverting to a system restore point if you make any changes to your system in the meantime.

The developer's has demonstrated commitment to improving the product, proactive follow-up, and that they don't just promise, they deliver. Well done, Treexy!

Original (and retracted) review, for context:

Unfortunately, this program stops short of actually being useful. It won't find better or newer drivers for you. It won't download them or install them. It just gives a different view of information that can already be obtained through standard utilities. It does identify the files and registry entries that are associated with a driver, which could come in handy, but it in no way justifies the claim of being "the complete device and driver solution for your PC". If you don't already know how to manage device drivers, this program won't help you a bit. If you do know how to manage them, the assistance it brings is minimal.

The software does mostly what it says it's supposed to, but I wouldn't recommend it at this stage of development.

1. Program crashes a lot, especially when performing an operation for the first time, such as entering the serial code or downloading a new driver.

2. Despite being managed through Steam, this software requires you to sign up an account with them. Kind of a hastle considering it's managing drivers on your local machine. This isn't exactly an MMO. If I can get my Skyrim save-games through the Steam cloud, anything you're storing could probably go there too.

3. Auto-login option doesn't always work.

4. Downloading is still a very convoluted process:
- When you're downloading something, the rest of the program is inaccessible.
- You can't pause a download.
- You can't queue multiple downloads.
- When viewing potential download candidates you can't view the current drivers info and compare them. You have to memorise one and then compare to the other.
- Downloads aren't filtered by whether they are signed. If you're freaked out by Windows warnings, be brave!
- The program will offer the current driver as a download, even if it is currently installed. Unless you've check that it's not the same one, you might perform a redundant download.

5. There are a few little finishing touches that are lacking. For example, when looking at an installed driver's release date, the format is (m)m/dd/yyyy. When looking at prospective new drivers, their release dates are dd/mm/yyyy (my preferred). Its just the little things.

Probably not worth the full price, depending on your rig and your resourcefulness, so try getting it on sale.

Driver Fusion Premium Review Summary

Driver Fusion Premium is by far one of the best utility programs available on Steam for pc. If like myself you have invested thousands of Dollars/Euro into your gaming rig, then Driver Fusion Premium should absolutely be in your software library. It will detect and resolve multiple driver issues that you were previously unaware were either missing/corrupted or outdated and I guaruntee after your first Driver Fusion Premium health check you'll be amazed at how many instrumental and obscure drivers begin populating the page. Driver Fusion Premium offers multiple driver maintainance features of which, I have listed in the lower portion of this review.

Simply put, I can't recommend Driver Fusion Premium enough. The combination of the softwares seamless functionality, accessable interface and excellent customer service support offered by the developers Treexy here in the Steam forums are more than enough to warrant my recommendation to anyone interested in computer maintainance.

Treexy's Driver Fusion Premium customer service here on Steam is second to none

The custormer support being given here on Steam by Treexy is second to none. If you have an issue or a question in regards to Driver Fusion Premium, Treexy will answer your questions and offer guidance for those who need it. Simply put, where other developers here on Steam fail Treexy succeeds. Treexy communicates directly through the forums in a candid manner on a daily basis, answering any questions you may have including but not limited to product questions, technical support and more. If you have a question about Driver Fusion Premium, post a thread and I guaruntee they'll respond in a timely manner.

Why am I such a huge supporter of Treexy's Driver Fusion Premium?

Driver Fusion Premium solved the infamous MadCatz Cyborg R.A.T 7 issues that have plagued so many but, had previously gone unsolved even by MadCatz and Cyborg themselves. Their answer has always been that it may be a faulty laser issue and an RMA may be the only solution. This wasn't the case whatsoever and was due to a driver distribution issue on their homepage. Driver Fusion Premium succeded where a manufacturer couldn't within seconds.

If you are a MadCatz Cyborg owner and have experienced similar issues to what I explain in the thread below, more than likely Driver Fusion will resolve it. Due to space limitations if interested, please follow the link below to read my entire thread in regards to Driver Fusion Premium solving my MadCatz Cyborg R.A.T 7 issues here in the Steam forums.

Is the premium version worth 39.99?

No, it's worth far more than that and it issues you a lifetime Steam liscense to use on multiple computers. I like many in the forums questioned as to whether or not Driver Fusion Premium functionality warranted it's price. After running the health check feature for the first time I was instantly converted into a believer, after seeing how many drivers were either outdated or missing/corrupted. If you value your tech and consider yourself a true entusiast, you owe it to yourself to make the purchase, you won't be dissapointed that you did. Read below for my detailed overview of the features you recieve with Driver Fusion Premium.

Driver Fusion Premium Features Overview

Maintainance:
• Premium Health Check: The Driver Fusion Premium health check is what I and many other Driver Fusion Premium users consider to be it's most useful and more than likely most frequented feature.You will be presented with three available options to utilize during the health check, Driver backup, Missings Drivers and Outdated drivers which can all be selected either individually or as a group depending on your needs at the moment via check boxes residing next to each corresponding category. At the bottom left you will then be presented with the option to scan and once it's completed a fix option will replace it in the same location.
  
  Driver Fusion Premium edition will manage this section semi-automatically creating backups before anything is performed and then begin populating the screen with data in regards to missing and/or outdated drivers and offer available certified/signed driver to either replace them with. It will then ask if you wish to proceed with it's recommended fixes. Once the fix option is selected Driver Fusion Premium will begin downloading and installing the necessary driver file you have selected. Within minutes your installation is complete and you will then if necessary be prompted to restart your computer as with any driver installations, restart and everything will then be completed.
  
  I really can't praise the Driver Fusion Premium health check feature enough because it truly is something that any true enthusiast should own. If you like myself have heavily invested in your gaming rig or computer in general, this investment will pay for itself usually within it's first launch. Like myself most users proclaim an instant gain in general computer efficiency and some have even remedied ingame issues such as low fps, launch issues and more. I guaruntee if used correctly this program will absolutely be one of the most appreciated pieces of software in your library.
  
  
• Driver Family: Driver familiy offers and much more efficient and effective method of creating backups, deleting installed driver entries such as files and registry keys. Simply put this feature eliminates the need for programs such as CCleaner anymore and the mistakes that come with it such as deleting incorrect reg files etc. All driver associated tasks can now be accomplished directly here in Driver Fusion Premium in an easily organized and stress free manner. Another fantastic feature of Driver Fusion Premium.
  
  
• Device Control: Device control is basically access to windows device manager, although that can be achieved without Driver fusion Premium it is a welcome addition considering it makes management much easier with it being in this location as well.
  
  Computer:
  
  
• Desktop: Desktop will allow you to backup different layouts and screen resolution for furture restoration with the press of a button.
  
  
• Monitor: Monitor is exactly that, a hardware monitor that presents on the fly information in regards to functionality such as Processor, Graphics card, Hard drive and motherboard information.This is another nice addition that although may not be the most detailed monitor available, is fantastic to has such easy access to while working on maintainance.
  
  Management:
  
  
• History: History offers information that can be reviewed such as previously deleted/restored drivers which can also be rolled back to at this location. This is another essential feature in Driver Fusion Premium that shouldn't go unnoticed. Simply put it's a feature in the case you experience any issues after installation and need to revert back to a previous state.
  
  
• Filters: Here you can create filters in regards to all driver maintainance actions.

Check out the Comprehensive Driver Fusion Premium Guide (work in progrees) for a detailed explanation of Driver Fusion Premium and it's features. The guide will be completed by February 1, 2015 but, already offers quite a bit of information that may assist you.

I know you are supposed to pay more for it to actually do the driver updates and there is nothing wrong with making software pay your bills, BUT... It listed multiple drivers that it said were outdated but were not. As a computer professional since DOS 2, My feelings are mixed for these type of programs. Sometimes it is best not to install 24 driver updates all at once.

Free version is 100% worthless. Can't do the simple things like update your drivers or back up.

I use it now several years and since Treexy updated this tool, it runs better, even if the backup function doesen`t work for all drivers, but all new drivers could be installed without any problem. If we use windows 10, several drivers will be installed from os (operating system ). It`s important to install only drivers with hundred percent compatibility and checked for WHQL (Windows Hardware Quality Labs), if available. This is the reason i like it, no need to update all drivers, sometimes it could be better to use a driver which work perfect on our system. Highest priority for selecting drivers should have os, because it can detect hardware too, second the driver update tool with compatibility check. It`s recommended to know which hardware components we use in our system. This can be easily read out with a free tool. Especially on 64 bit systems it`s necessary that all drivers work perfect together.

This used to be a handy tool that worked well for updating your drivers. Unfortunately, this software no longer functions correctly for users on Windows 10. Indeed, at this point it appears this software has been abandoned entirely. And what use a tool that keeps your computer up-to-date, which itself is not up-to-date?

It has been over a calendar year since there was any activity on the developers website or any of their social media accounts. The developers own external forum has been wiped and is 'migrating to another forum'. Here on Steam, the last post made by the developer was in July. If there are any plans to revive this software or rectify its Windows 10 dysfunction, they are being worked on very quietly.

I would not recommend purchasing or using this software in its present condition.

Update, Dec 2017: Whilst it is great to know this software has been updated, for much of 2016 and 2017 no-one who had upgraded to Windows 10 anniversary update and beyond could use this software. During that time there was not one communication or response from the developer here on Steam.

I appreciate that recent updates have restored service to Windows 10 users, but trust is an important thing with software like this. I find it difficult to overlook a considerable period of time where I could not use this software and the developers were notably absent.

I can only hope other users will have more positive experiences in the future.

Disabled my audio driver, then asked me to pay for premium to download update

The free version does nothing, its useless, its empty.
So not free at all as it states.
Besides that i coudnt test the software.
