Reinstalling drivers and applications
Drivers and applications are software that enables Windows 10 to communicate with the hardware devices and software in your
computer. Devices such as video and sound cards require drivers to function correctly within Windows, and enable users to adjust
hardware settings.
Windows 10 includes drivers for most devices, but device-specific drivers may have to be downloaded and installed separately. Dell
recommends that you download the device drivers for your Dell computer from Drivers & Downloads.
Applications must be downloaded and installed separately. Dell recommends that you download the required applications for your Dell
computer from the Dell Download Center.
