Do I need to update Windows 10 drivers?

When it comes to driver updates Windows 10 does a pretty good job of updating them automatically.

To check if any of your hardware devices has issues you need to check the Device Manager. In order to open the Device Manager you need to open the Windows Start Menu and in the search bar type “Device Manager”. If there are devices with issues they will appear under the respective category, marked with an exclamation mark warning sign.
