Serious Discussion What is the Best Alternative to Patch My Pc?

[lokamoka820]

I use a combination of PatchMyPC and @silversurfer @Gandalf_The_Grey and some of the other members here who keep us up to date. I haven't found a better alternative, yet

Do you use the new version (5) or still on the previous liter portable version (4.5)?

I haven't use it for about 3 months, my use of apps is very limited these days. So mainly when I open InfraView, VLC and browsers check for an update, and when I'm remind here. I just use my PC and notebooks to surf and keep up with the outside world like forums, YouTube etc. I am not a PC, app power user. I used to be more into it years ago

Glary Utilities Software Update...

UCheck, sadly it's not as good as kcsoftwares no longer maintained dUMO & sUMO. UCheck is fine for software but for drivers I really haven't found anything to replace dUMO.

I'm currently using UCheck for software updates.

Yeah it's OK, it's fine if you just go direct to official download site and get it there. Never updated it through UCheck.

What about Driver Identifier? Note that it comes bundled with the Opera browser, which you can opt out of installing. Some antiviruses detect it as a PUP, but it's not malicious.

DriverIdentifier - The most simple & easy driver updating tool.

DriverIdentifier helps you quickly identify and download the latest drivers for your PC, ensuring optimal performance and hardware compatibility.

I update software through UCheck, it updates software from its own database list and from winget too, and it shows updates for other software (even portable software) based on its community list.
