Is Windows XP automatic Driver Update Utility Download safe to use?
Should I start the download for this automatic driver Update Utility
for Windows XP Driver Downloads that suddenly popped up on my screen? Is it safe and legitimate? This is the site web http://www.driverupdate.net/articles/xp_download/windows-xp-driver-downloads.php?aps=winXPtextsplit2. Thank you in advance, Slowbutsure :~)
Hello
The problem with the automatic driver update utilities is they will fail all ultimately and
sometimes with spectacular results (bad). So I recommend only utilities that help
determine what drivers are loaded and help find sites of the manufacturer of the device
where they are.This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:
DriverView execution - Set VIEW of Microsoft drivers hide - update those without drain in their
names.-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.

Where can I find the download more updated of the Windows Migration Wizard?
Article Apple describing the use of the Windows Migration Wizard that is located here – move your data from a Windows PC to Mac - Apple Support
This article includes a link to the download page for the latest version and the download page is here - Migration of Windows Wizard v1.0.5.7
It does not seem to have been updated for a couple of years and doesn't mention Windows 10. While many the most applications that are compatible with Windows 7 and 8 works perfectly under Windows 10 I can say from personal experience, if this also applies to the Windows Migration Wizard.
