What is DriverView?

DriverView shows the device drivers currently loaded on a Windows system. Its table brings together driver names, memory addresses, descriptions, versions, product names and company details, making it useful for identifying a loaded driver before investigating it further. You can hide Microsoft drivers, rearrange columns and copy selected entries to the clipboard.

Save the list as text, CSV, HTML or XML when you need a record to share or compare. Command-line export and sorting options support generating reports without arranging each export manually. The Digital Signature column can show the signer name when Read Digital Signatures is enabled; that option is off by default.

The linked download is the publisher's x64 ZIP package. DriverView runs as a standalone executable without installation. NirSoft lists Windows 10 and Windows 11 among supported systems, but Windows 11 version 24H2 and later require running DriverView as Administrator. The screenshot is the publisher's older Windows-style interface example, not a capture from this author or proof of the current Windows 11 appearance.
