Remove left over drivers

One of the most annoying aspects of Windows de-installations is the amount of drivers that are left behind.

Driver Sweeper Portable is a fast and efficient tool to remove drivers that are left overs from programs that have been uninstalled. It scans your system for programs installed and ensures that it only removes those that are superfluous to further use. Other than cleaning your hard drive, it can also prevent stability and startup problems.

In addition, it's useful to use if you're performing a standard update/remove of drivers from your system. To use Driver Sweeper Portable, all you need to do is uninstall the program you want to remove and then reboot your PC in Safe Mode. Run Driver Sweeper and select the files you want to clean.

Driver Sweeper Portable is a quick and easy way to ensure that your hard drive remains driver free and your programs working with less conflicts.

To: trojan downloader on board. Hi,I'm Niamh from Softonic. None of our programs have any viruses - you can find out why here: http://en.softonic.com/anti.... Apart from that, I also scanned and installed the file personally, and it was absolutely fine - no virus, no trojan, no downloader. Perhaps your computer was infected before you downloaded it?Niamh

trojan downloader on board.. I used to think softonic did a better job than this. You download this file which downloads another file you download that file and you get the junk jbhl loader or whatever it is called. This needs to be deleted and the uploader needs to be punished. Pros: how should I know it only installed garbage. Cons: garbage.

Your review for Driver Sweeper
Softonic

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
