I just found the 2 Windows Driver Packages in my installed programs. I cannot find anything in the internet about them. I suspect that it got in with the Window 7 update, not sure. Are these legitimate software for Windows and do I really need them? Otherwise, should I uninstall them? Are these related to my Apple updates related to my IPad? I would really appreciate any advice I can get. Thanks!

Thanks Vijay. In the process of uninstalling both programs they both showed that they are supporting the Garmin update software. They probably got installed when I updated my Garmin Update software. I uninstalled them anyway along with the Garmin software since reinstalling them was a breeze.
Hi Thomas,
First, I would suggest you to go to view installed updates and see if there are any updates available related to Windows Driver Package by Dynastream Innovations, Inc. and Windows Driver Package by Silicon Labs Software.
See which Windows updates are installed

If you don’t have any updates related to Windows Driver Package by Dynastream Innovations, Inc. and Windows Driver Package by Silicon Labs Software and if you are not using those programs, then you can go ahead and uninstall those programs.
Uninstall or change a program
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other issues with Windows in future.

Seldom (Like... NEVER) do I find the answer I need so quickly, and to the point. It was MY Garmin update!
What a relief. It would have been nice to have Garmin give us a heads-up.
Hi Thomas,
Thank you for updating us with the status of the issue. Glad to know that you are able to fix the issue. Let us know if you have any other issues with Windows in future.
Well.. After replying here, June 10, I deleted the programs and searched for more in the registry. Today, 8/31/15. I found them again. I delete the first installation and when I came back for the 2nd one, it was gone also. sigh...
