Yes or No? Download - IObit's Driver Booster

I have IObit's Driver Booster 2 downloaded (scans your PC for out-of-date drivers and updates them for you) to my new Dell I just purchased and its telling me that I have 14 outdated device drivers. Example… Dell Wireless Bluetooth, Intel HD Graphics, PCI etc.

What I would like to know if it’s safe for me to run IObit's Driver Booster 2 and update my drivers?

System Name: INSPIRON 3847 / [Admin Note: Service Tag removed per TOU]

Thanks, Scott

Hi Scott,

I wouldn't. Dell's got their own built-in tool, "My Dell", to check for driver updates. Use that.

I'm sure you're aware that half of these "speed up my system" and such tools are spyware, mostly for collecting information about you and selling it to someone.

I have used it . Never had problems after up dates. I would suggest letting Dell scan your computer and download suggested drivers etc.
