# Update System Drivers

## <mark style="color:blue;">Updating a single driver via Device Manager</mark>

Some drivers do not come with an installer and need to be installed manually. This can be done via Device Manager. This guide will show you how.

* Copy the driver files to a USB flash drive.
* If the drivers are contained inside a .zip file, extract them first.
* In this example, we use the same flash drive we installed Windows 10 from
* Eject the flash drive and connect it to the OnLogic PC. Type “Device Manager” into the start menu and launch Device Manager.

* Expand the Display adapters menu. If you see “Microsoft Basic Display Adapter”, that means you are missing the driver. Right click and choose “Update driver”.

* Locate the folder on your flash drive with the drivers inside it. Click on the folder and click OK.

* Now that the location shows where your driver folder is, click Next

* Windows will now search that folder for the correct drivers and install them automatically.

* Success! If you get a failure message, go back and make sure you copied all of the drivers to the flash drive and that they are not still inside a zip file. You need to extract them.

* Repeat this process for all other devices marked with the yellow exclamation point. Typically, they will all be found under the “Other devices” heading.

* When you no longer have any marked devices the process is complete. A reboot of the system is recommended.

### <mark style="color:blue;">Updating multiple drivers at once</mark> <a href="#updating-multiple-drivers-at-once" id="updating-multiple-drivers-at-once"></a>

* Copy the driver package to a flash drive and plug it into the Windows machine
* Open Command Prompt and navigate to the flash drive (e.g. >D:)
* Run the command “*pnputil /add-driver \*.inf /subdirs /install*“

*You can also create a batch file and place it at the root of the .zip file that contains the line:*

*pnputil /add-driver \*.inf /subdirs /install*
