Description
===========

InstalledDriversList is a simple tool for Windows that lists all device
drivers that are currently installed on your system. For every device
driver, the following information is displayed: Driver Name, Display
Name, Description, Startup Type, Driver type, Driver Group, Filename,
File Size, Modified/Created Time of the driver file, and version
information of the driver file.
If the driver is currently running on Windows kernel, the following
information is also displayed: Base Memory Address, End Address, Memory
Size, and Load Count.



System Requirements
===================

This utility works on any version of Windows, starting from Windows 2000
and up to Windows 8. On 64-bit systems, you must use the 64-bit version
of InstalledDriversList.



Versions History
================


* Version 1.01:
  o Added secondary sorting support: You can now get a secondary
    sorting, by holding down the shift key while clicking the column
    header. Be aware that you only have to hold down the shift key when
    clicking the second/third/fourth column. To sort the first column you
    should not hold down the Shift key.
  o Fixed to display local date/time values according to daylight
    saving time settings.

* Version 1.00 - First release.



Start Using InstalledDriversList
================================

InstalledDriversList doesn't require any installation process or
additional dll files. In order to start using it, simply run the
executable file - InstalledDriversList.exe

After running it, the main window of InstalledDriversList displays the
list of all drivers installed on your system. You can select one or more
items (or select all items with Ctrl+A), and then copy them to the
clipboard (Ctrl+C) and paste them into Excel or other spreadsheet
application. You can also use the 'Save Selected Items' option (Ctrl+S)
to export the selected items into csv/tab-delimited/xml/html file.



Meaning of green/yellow/red icons
=================================


* Green Icon - The driver is running on Windows kernel.
* Yellow Icon - The driver is not running on Windows kernel.
* Red Icon - The driver is not running on Windows kernel, but it should
  be loaded automatically when Windows starts. When you see a red icon,
  it's possible that something is wrong with the driver. Be aware that on
  Windows 8, there are 2 drivers of the operating system that are
  normally displayed with red icon.

This command-line option can be used with other save options for sorting

The <column> parameter can specify the column index (0 for the first
column, 1 for the second column, and so on) or the name of the column,
like "Display Name" and "Driver Name". You can specify the '~' prefix
character (e.g: "~Visit Time") if you want to sort in descending order.
You can put multiple /sort in the command-line if you want to sort by
multiple columns.

Examples:
InstalledDriversList.exe /shtml "f:\temp\drivers.html" /sort 2 /sort ~1
InstalledDriversList.exe /shtml "f:\temp\drivers.html" /sort "Driver
Type" /sort "Display Name"

   InstalledDriversList.exe /savelangfile
   A file named InstalledDriversList_lng.ini will be created in the
   folder of InstalledDriversList utility.
2. Open the created language file in Notepad or in any other text
   editor.
