Guru3D - Driver Sweeper is a fast tool to remove driver leftovers from your system. It's very important to remove your drivers on a proper way, because driver leftovers can cause problems like stability and startup problems. You can use it if you want to update/remove drivers from your system.
For example: "\G3DDS.exe" -NVIDIA -ATi -Quit This will clean both NVIDIA Display and ATi Display drivers at program startup and close the program if cleaning is finished.
This will automatically clean NVIDIA (Display) and ATi (Display) drivers at startup. This can save you some time if you are always cleaning the same drivers.
System requirements:
The Guru3D - Driver Sweeper is fully tested on Windows 2000, XP and Vista. Both 32-bit and 64-bit versions are supported.
Changelog (1.5.0) - 07-06-08
New:
- Redone GUI.
- You can now check after cleaning if an entry has been removed
or not without opening Logs.

Thanks to NiukNiuk.

Thanks to 王不留行.

Thanks to Animatrix.
- You can now add custom filters.
You can add filters for almost everything. Not only drivers,
but also filters for applications.
It's also possible to extend the current filters.
If you add a filter or extend a current filter, please send it to [email protected].
Files:
- You can use wildcards: * , this will find everything matching the wildcard. You can use multiple wildcards at the same time.
Example:
C:\Windows\System32\at*.*s will find all files matching the at*.*s phrase.
- You can use all System Environment variables, like %Systemroot%.
Registry:
- If you want to remove a key in the registry, make sure the value you want to clean ends with a \ .
- Values can be removed without a \ at end of value.
Example:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ATi Technologies\ will detect the key ATi Technolgies.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ATi Technologies\ATi will detect the value ATi.
Directory:
- You can also use System Environment variables.
Fixed:
- NVIDIA LAN driver problem after deleting NVIDIA Display drivers.
- Deleting directories could cause an error.
- ASIO cleaning redone for Creative - Sound, previous cleaning could cause problems with other ASIO drivers.
- Registry restore not working properly in some cases.
- File cleaning now works properly on Windows x64. On older versions almost no files where detected to be cleaned. This is a known bug which exists in a lot of programs. This build fixes this problem, but you need to have .NET 2.0 or higher installed.
Updated:
- Optimized scanning of files and registry keys.
- Changed save date and time format to yy-mm-dd.
- Improved ATi Registry cleaning.
- Improved NVIDIA File cleaning.
- Rewritten Desktop Icon Restorer, it's now compatible with Windows x64 as well. Multiple displays are also supported.
On x64 version's you need to have .NET 2.0 or higher installed.
Special thanks to Dragunov and all translators for this release!
