How to restore drivers with the Driver Genius driver auto-installer
If you’ve used Driver Genius to create a driver auto-installer, you can use it to restore individual drivers.
And it only takes few simple steps to do.
Here’s how you do it…
Step 1 — Launch the driver auto-installer
Open My Computer (or wherever the folder is you saved the driver auto-installer to).
Double click the icon to launch it.
Step 2 — Select the driver to restore
All the drivers will be selected by default.
Uncheck all but the driver you want to restore.
I’m going to restore my modem driver.
Click Start Restore.
Step 3 — Restore your driver
You’ll now get a pop-up message asking if you want to restore the driver.
Click Yes to confirm.
The window will be greyed-out while your driver is restored.
After a few seconds the window will become active again.
Click Finish.
Step 4 — Restart your computer
You’ll now be prompted to restart your computer for the restore process to take effect.
It’s up to you whether you restart it now or later.
Click Yes or No — either way, the auto-installer will close.
And that’s it. Done.
