UNSOLVED
SupportAssist keeps asking same drivers update
Hello everyone, as the title suggested SupportAssist keeps asking me to update some drivers that are already in the last version and freshly updated.
I tried to remove the problematic drivers and make a new install, I also tried to do a fresh install of SupportAssist, but nothing worked and I can’t manage to fix my annoying problem!
I already installed those drivers many times and nothing changes…. I might even have more than one installation of the same driver now; I’m considering to remove the program and forget about it. Can anyone help me? Has anyone any idea how to solve my issue?
Thanks in advance, have a great day
Life is short. Due to similar problems, myself and others just uninstall it.

Same here! I don't know how many times i've allowed the BIOS and other driver to install i do it it restarts then the dell driver update software tells me that the driver need updating! Never again last time i updated the divers it crashed my new Dell XPS into a boot looper and took me ages to get up and running. The software to be honest **bleep**....

Yes, that works for me.

Hi. I am piggybacking on another's post since I could not find the PM option for you that you suggested to them. My Dell is out of warranty so if you can't help so be it. My service tag is . I too am getting daily notifications about needing to update my drivers and when I run SupportAssist none are found. I allow Windows 10 automatic updates, and periodically visit Dell.com to check for issues. None exist and computer is fine.The notifications are annoying but I can continue ti ignore them knowing all is well. Just thought you might have a suggestion. Thanks, Diana

Thanks for your reply!
I was seriously considering to just uninstall it, what stopped me was the possibility of having outdated drivers, but reading your other topic reassured me because basically windows 10 updates the same drivers! I just need to pay attention to newer GPU and Bios driver.
Thanks for giving me your solution, have a good day!
