Everything you need for driver and BIOS management
A comprehensive toolkit designed for endpoint administrators who need reliable, automated packaging workflows.
Automated Driver Downloads
Accelerated downloads via curl.exe with HTTP resume support, configurable retry logic (10 retries, 60s delay), and automatic hash verification for every package.
Multi-OEM Support
Full support for HP, Dell, Lenovo, Microsoft Surface, and Acer — with automatic catalog discovery and per-manufacturer extraction logic.
BIOS Update Management
Comprehensive BIOS update support with version comparison, release classification (Recommended/Critical), minimum version validation, and hash verification.
WIM Packaging
Create WIM packages using DISM (built-in) or wimlib (multi-threaded) with configurable compression: XPRESS (fast), LZX (maximum), or None.
ConfigMgr Integration
Native Configuration Manager support with automatic package creation, content distribution to DPs, WinRM/WMI connectivity, and deployment state tracking.
Intune Integration
Full Microsoft Intune support with device code or app registration auth, chunked Azure Blob uploads (4–100 MB), parallel threading, and Win32 app packaging.
Deploy to ConfigMgr, Intune, or standalone WIM
Four deployment modes to match your environment and workflow — from fully automated to manual distribution.
Configuration Manager
Automatic package creation, content distribution to distribution points, WinRM & WMI hardware inventory, deployment state tracking (Production, Pilot, Retired).
Microsoft Intune
Interactive (Device Code) or App Registration auth, toast notification previews, configurable upload chunk size and parallel threads, automatic Win32 app packaging.
WIM Package Only
Direct WIM creation for manual distribution workflows without ConfigMgr or Intune dependency.
Download Only
Download and extract driver/BIOS packages without any packaging — ideal for manual review or custom workflows.
Native Microsoft Intune integration
Driver and BIOS packages are automatically packaged as Win32 apps and published straight to Intune — no manual content prep, wrapping, or detection scripting required. Everything is reported and managed directly within the Microsoft Intune admin center.
Automatic Win32 packaging
Each driver and BIOS package is built into the .intunewin format and uploaded as a Win32 app with install/uninstall commands, detection rules, and metadata generated for you.
Full device visibility
Report on deployments directly in the Intune admin center. Admins get complete visibility of exactly which devices are being updated, with per-app install, pending, failed, and not-applicable status at a glance.
Scoped assignment filters
Assignment filters limit the scope of devices receiving each update, so a package only targets the matching manufacturer, model, and SystemID — devices only ever receive the packages built for them.
Intune client update process
Once published, driver and BIOS update packages can be deployed as available or required apps through Intune. Users install from the Company Portal, or the package is pushed automatically. A Windows toast notification gives the user the option to proceed immediately or defer — if no action is taken, the install continues automatically after 5 minutes.
Company Portal — Available App
End users open the Intune Company Portal and locate the driver or BIOS update published as an available app. They click Install to begin the process on demand.
Toast Notifications
Fully branded and customisable Windows toast notifications keep end users informed at every stage of the update process — from pending updates through to successful completion.
Each notification is fully customisable — replace the default branding with your own logo and tailor the messaging to match your organisation's IT communication standards.
