About Driver Store Explorer
Driver Store Explorer, also called RAPR, gives a graphical view of the Windows driver store, where Windows keeps copies of every driver package it has installed. You can see what is there and remove outdated packages that take up disk space.
The project warns that it modifies the driver store directly, and that careless use can stop devices working or prevent Windows from booting. The documentation is available in English, Turkish, Korean and Chinese.
