What is Driver Booster Free?
Driver Booster Free is IObit's Windows driver-management utility. It scans the PC for outdated, missing or broken device drivers and lets you initiate updates from one interface rather than locating each device's download separately. The publisher lists support for graphics, audio, network, USB and printer drivers.
Free and PRO are not equivalent. IObit's edition comparison lists manual driver updates for Free, while automatic driver updates, automatic backup protection and premium technical support are PRO features. Free also has access to a smaller driver database. Choose it for scanning and user-initiated updates, not for the paid edition's unattended maintenance features.
The download link follows IObit's Free download route to a Windows EXE installer. Its exact build and CPU architecture have not been verified by inspecting or running the installer. The gallery image is an older Driver Booster 9 Free interface supplied on Softonic's Windows product page; it illustrates the update screen, not the appearance of the current release.
What it offers
- Scan a Windows PC for outdated, missing or broken device drivers.
- Initiate driver updates manually from the Free edition.

Good to know
- Automatic driver updates, automatic backup protection and premium technical support are listed as PRO-only features in the publisher's edition comparison.
- The Free edition has access to a smaller driver database than PRO.
- The supplied screenshot shows Driver Booster 9 Free, not the current interface.
