Software Update: Driver Fusion 1.8.0

Spread the love

Driver Fusion is the successor to Driver Sweeper. With this program old drivers can be cleaned. When removing old drivers via a supplied uninstaller or via the control panel, not all files of that driver are always removed from the system and sometimes keys are left behind in the registry. This can lead to stability or performance issues in some cases. Driver Fusion is available in a free and a premium version. The latter can be purchased for fifteen euros and offers additional functionality. The changelog for version 1.8.0 shows the following changes and improvements:

New features:

  • Windows – Driver Fusion is now fully compatible with Windows 8.1.
  • Interface – Improved navigation to give you quick access to the controls in one convenient place.
  • Device installation settings – In device settings you can now change if you want Windows to always install the best driver software from Windows Update. **
  • Device control – Improved design to make switching between devices and categories more visual and intuitive. **
  • Search engine – Added DuckDuckGo to the possible search engines within Driver Fusion. **
  • Monitor – Redesigned with a focus on improved readability and usability. **

Changed features:

  • Driver family – The database of possible entries for NVIDIA display and AMD display has been updated.
  • Interface – The interface has been improved in many areas. Most notably are the Treexy account screens and the new menu for settings and signed-in users.
  • Monitor – Support has been added for more hardware. This includes Intel Ivy Bridge E CPUs and the latest ASUS and ASRock motherboards. **

Resolved issues:

  • Starting/closing – Several issues that caused Driver Fusion to close unintentionally.
  • Device control – In some cases a backup could select the wrong digital signature. **
  • Device control – Driver information shows empty rows. **
  • Device control – File copy dialog shown when browsing a monitor. **
