General

1 Create a diagnostics report, which you can send to us for troubleshooting.

2 Change the application language.

3 Change the application theme.

4 Choose whether to automatically update the application to the latest version. If disabled, you must update manually.

Advanced

1 Choose whether to automatically create system restore points before critical changes.

2 Choose whether to automatically create a backup before making changes. You can restore them in history.

3 Set how long history and driver backups are kept. If only one driver backup exists for a device, it's never deleted.

4 Set how often to check for driver and device issues. You can choose from four intervals.

5 Help to improve the detection of drivers by reporting anonymous information to us.

6 Set the minimum signature of the suggested drivers: signed or WHQL. Choosing signed also includes WHQL drivers.

A signature confirms the software author and ensures the driver has not been altered or corrupted. WHQL drivers are also verified for compatibility with Microsoft Windows. Signed is the default as we already test suggested drivers on multiple computers before making them available.

7 Set the default Windows behavior for installing or updating drivers. This gives you full control and lets you keep your current drivers.

8 Prevent automatic installation of drivers for a specific device. This applies system-wide, including Windows Update, Windows' Device Manager, and third-party installers, except for Driver Fusion.
