To automatically install drivers in Windows 10, you can follow these steps:
1. Right-click on the device for which you want to install drivers and select “Properties”. This will open the Properties window for that device.
2. In the Properties window, click on the “Driver” tab. This tab contains options related to the device driver.
3. On the Driver tab, you will see a button labeled “Update Driver”. Click on this button to start the driver update process.
4. In the driver update window, you will have two options: “Search automatically for drivers” and “Browse my computer for drivers”. Select the first option, which is “Search automatically for drivers”.
5. Windows will now search for the latest drivers for your device. It will connect to Windows Update and other online sources to find the appropriate driver for your device. If a newer driver is found, Windows will automatically download and install it.
Starting from Windows 10 version 2004, there is a slight change in the process:
1. Right-click on the device you want to install drivers for and select “Properties”.
2. In the Properties window, click on the “Driver” tab.
3. On the Driver tab, click on the “Update Driver” button.
4. In the driver update window, click on the option “Search for updated drivers on Windows Update”. This will allow Windows to search for the latest drivers on the Windows Update servers.
5. After clicking on “Search for updated drivers on Windows Update”, you will see an option called “View optional updates”. Click on this option.
6. In the optional updates window, you will find a list of driver updates available for your device. Select the driver updates you want to install and click on the “Download and install” button.
7. Windows will now download and install the selected driver updates automatically.
It’s worth noting that Windows Update may not always have the latest drivers for your device, especially for less common or older devices. In such cases, you may need to visit the manufacturer’s website and manually download the drivers for your device.
To summarize, to automatically install drivers in Windows 10, you need to right-click on the device, select Properties, go to the Driver tab, click on the Update Driver button, and then choose the appropriate option to search for and install the latest drivers automatically.
