Your obsession with with updatng drivers is going to compromise your machine, eventually. And, no virus scanner is perfect.
And, new/latest drivers can have errors and fail.
There are others that are obsessed with driver updating, and they eventually come here crying and begging for help because their system is corrupted or their data is lost, or something, caused by some driver obtained from somewhere.
Regarding IDSA, you are fortunate that it works at all.
But, you do what you want. It is your machine.

New ContributorOh, thank You for the advice. But, since 20 years that I have one Computer at home I have mastered how to get the latest drivers and do not harm the operating system.
I always do it my way and my Computer never gets corrupted because I do not touch the firmware's of anything, I only do update the drivers. In updating firmware's, I do not have knowledge and I always am afraid that if I try to update one firmware my Computer will get corrupt and the firmware's, I always leave as they are, as they came when the Computer was bought.
Well, my 51 years of computers says that the odds are against you.
But, good luck anyway.

New ContributorThank You. I wish You also good luck.
But, look at these attachments. Just look. My Computer is one DELL OptiPlex 5040 that was released in year 2016 and with Microsoft Windows Update and with DELL Command Update I would get all the time the drivers from the year 2016 or 2017 and with that, 10 different driver updater software's that I install always after I format my Computer and update the drivers and then I uninstall all those driver updater software's and then I scan my Computer with different antivirus software's to remove every virus that comes with the driver updater software and I got this: look at the attachments.
I have the most important system drivers are all from the year 2019. And some another drivers I have from year 2022 or even year 2023.
I really do not see your point. Seems like you have reached some point of nirvana. It makes me wonder why you are so concerned with IDSA.
