Software Update: Driver Fusion 2.8.0

Treexy has released version 2.8.0 of Driver Fusion. 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 keys are sometimes left behind in the registry. This can lead to stability or performance issues in some cases.

Driver Fusion is available in a free version and in a Premium version, which additional functionality offers. The free version is bundled with adware, prices for the Premium version start at 15 euros. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:
