Advanced Driver Updater review
A paid Windows driver updater with scheduling, backups, and one-click installs.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Advanced Driver Updater is Windows software for scanning computers for outdated, missing, or faulty device drivers. It is aimed at Windows users who want to maintain drivers without manually searching manufacturer websites. One-click downloads and installations simplify the update process, while backup and restoration features provide a way to preserve existing drivers. It supports Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, and 7 in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
The product has one listed paid plan, also named Advanced Driver Updater. Its regular annual price is MYR 310, and the displayed promotional price is MYR 180. A free trial can update individual drivers, while the registered version can update all detected drivers at once. The paid offering adds the broader update workflow alongside driver backups, restoration, scheduled scans, exclusions, and WHQL-certified driver support. Buyers should review the current plan price before subscribing because the displayed promotional amount differs from the regular annual price.
For ongoing maintenance, scheduling is the standout fit: users can arrange driver scans rather than relying only on manual checks, and automatic summaries show scan results. The exclusion list is useful when particular drivers should not be included in routine updates. However, the product does not support offline scanning and is limited to Windows. Choose it if scheduled scanning, one-click installation, and rollback-oriented backup features match your maintenance routine. Consider another option if offline operation, a free plan, or support beyond Windows is essential.
