How to remove "driver restore"?

Hi,

It is not recommended that you get Drivers though Windows Updates, unless they are for Microsoft's Hardware.

Sometimes Microsoft gives you Updates for 3rd Party Hardware: Graphics, Network Adaptors, etc.

You should only obtain the latest Drivers for them from the actual Computer/Laptop Hardware Manufacturer's website, as Microsoft normally does nor have those latest Drivers available as Microsoft relies of the 3rd Party Hardware Manufacturer to supply them.

To get rid of those popups about Drivers, scan for Malware:

Download, install, update and scan your System with the free version of Malwarebytes Antimalware:

Ths is a very good Program to scan your System to remove Adware, etc:

AdwCleaner is a program that searches for and deletes Adware, Toolbars, Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUP), and browser Hijackers from your computer.  By using AdwCleaner you can easily remove many of these types of programs for a better user experience on your computer and while browsing the web.

Cheers.

Hi Larry,

Please follow the steps provided in this Removal Guide: http://malwaretips.com/blogs/landing-driverrestore-com-virus/

Note: Steps 1 through 4 should be sufficient. Normally, it's not necessary  to use HitmanPro.

I'll move this thread to the Virus and Malware Forum.

Cheers,
