Snappy Driver Installer 1.23.9 (R2309) (x86/x64)

Snappy Driver Installer (SDI) is a portable program for installing and updating drivers that does not require an Internet connection. It is a reworking of the original SDIO program from Glenn Delahoy. Just like SDIO, it is a leader among programs of this class in terms of driver selection accuracy and operating speed. When ranking drivers, it gives priority to more suitable drivers (regardless of the presence of newer versions) in order to minimize risks for ordinary users. Experts can appreciate the large amount of information provided about drivers and the ability to select an alternative driver.

Main features of SDI:

Programming language: C/C++.
The most advanced driver selection algorithm among analogues.
The program weighs about 4 megabytes (both versions) and does not require any third-party programs/libraries.
High performance during indexing, driver search, installation.
Support for working with unpacked drivers.
Creating system snapshots that allow you to emulate someone else's system on another PC.
Warnings about possible attempts of viruses to infect a flash drive with a program.
Possibility to update the program and driver packs via the Internet (torrent technology).

How is this release different from SamDrivers?
This distribution is based on the SamDrivers collection with the following differences:

There is no third-party software.
There are no other programs to install drivers.
Both versions of the SDI program are included - 32-bit and 64-bit.
The distribution is made in the form of a folder, not an .iso image, which allows you to select driver packs for download.
The distribution is updated with each release of driver packs, and not once a month.
