Having our computer configured correctly is important so that in this way we can access all the options and functions that we need directly and easily. The Device Manager in Windows 10 is a central point to manage everything related to the drivers of each device connected to the computer. This encompasses display adapters, network cards, audio, printers, USB ports ....
