Toshiba Satellite Driver update

[ging1841]

when I log on, I get a notification I have a driver update for Toshiba Satelitte L755-S517/Windows 10. When I click on the notification, no update occurs. Toshiba does not have driver update info for this model with Windows 10. How can I find the update?

I need to find out if my Toshiba Satellite L755-S517/Windows 10 needs a driver update. Everytime I boot up, I get a notification from Microsoft, but when I click on it, the notification simply goes away. The Toshiba site does not recognize this model with Windows 10

Sounds like the prompt you are getting is not from a legitimate source. I would seriously consider scanning your device for viruses, malware, etc.

Thank you! I did have a few suspicions of my own. I use 'Driver Support' app, and I am not convinced. I do scan for viruses, malware etc with Ccleaner (Piriform), Microsoft Malwarebytes and the Windows Defender, so I don't think I have any 'cooties'. Do I need to uninstall the Driver Support app?

I see no reason you would 'need' to install that unless you want to do it.

However, I would be very careful of that message you are getting. If your drivers are up to date, per the manufacturer's site, then something isn't right. While Windows Defender is for virus checking, it isn't really a deep scan program. You might want to consider something more serious. Which would still be free. Avast, AVG, etc. I would also suggest something like Spybot or other similar program.

Thank you. I do run Malwarebytes, and CCleaner on a regular basis, along with Windows defender. I think it is the Driver Support app and I will remove it. Appreciate the help!
