Windows 10: Drive Easy

Hello
Is this program safe and free? I went to that site and it listed a lot of drivers needing updating but said register on the
bottom. I closed out not knowing what the next step was.
I noticed Macrium Reflect asked me to update my network driver IF I was going to use a network back up destination.
I looked in device manager and it says Broadcom 802.11 ver. 6.30.223.256.
I cannot go to the Dell site b/c I have Windows 10 and the driver update device only recognizes my machine as Win 7.
The last time I did this with the Bios the desktop was successful but the laptop is dead 6 years old anyway).
If I can not use the manufacturer's site I was looking for a program to update that network driver that was reliable and free, if possible.
I could use a local backup drive and not upgrade the driver if it is dicey.
Thank you
Peter

Need to upgrade HD to SSD with Win 10 installed

Thanks Zig,

This is probably tied together but I get a "E000101F4: Acronis Migrate Easy has detected unsupported hard disk drives. Acronis Migrate Easy does not support Windows Dynamic Disks, EZ-Drives, etc."

I have the new hard drive formatted as a NTFS and the computer sees it as drive D:

 

WINDOWS Easy File Transfer Windows 10

My files from the Old Win7 PC is now in a Windows EASY TRANSFER in an external drive, and my old Hard Drive is damaged, meaning everything from my old PC can not be recover.

So now all I have is the Windows EASY TRANSFER in an external drive, and I need a software to extract the files from Windows EASY TRANSFER database.

So, Microsoft, what do you got?

Thanks in advance

 

right click on network adapter and select update driver > it will search MS driver database online..
otherwise avoid free driver sites -

 

If you mean Driver Easy, yes, it is reliable. You do not need to register. Free version allows a slow download and a manual install, but it is great for scanning for missing/outdated drivers, which you can then search.

 

@Kyhi - I took your advice. I guess the version I have is the highest I should because it remained the same.
Thank you for steering me away from those other potential disasters.

 

Download the Windows 7 driver from the Dell site. When it is run it unzips to a folder on the C: drive. Usually C:\Dell\Drivers or some such, take note of where it unzips. If the driver fails to install, browse to the unzipped folder, Right click Setup.exe/Properties/Compatibility. Run the setup in Compatibility mode for Windows 7.

 

>.My machine has a more updated version than Dell but it was a good idea . I guess this old beast is showing signs. I replaced the HDD and PSU with keyboard, mouse and monitor.but that it for $. Most of these parts can go with a new pc anyway.
