Identify all the devices attached to your PC

Using Windows System Info in the Control Panel to identify what's connected to your PC can be a frustrating experience.

The problem is that many components, such as graphics cards and other internal chips, have generic manufacturer names that mean nothing to you unless you've got a degree in computing. Unknown Devices solves this problem by giving you a much fuller description of what each component really is.

Most of all however, it's useful for searching through your Device Manager for unknown devices and extracting information from it. This is also useful for anyone who needs to know the exact components they've got installed rather than just a general idea or having to open up your PC. You can run Unknown Devices from a CD or US stick too so it's a useful addition to any PC technician's toolbox especially if you're working on several PCs at once.

Unknown Devices is an excellent way to find out just what is attached to your PC without having to decipher generic names.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
