Universal Intel Chipset Device Updater​
Project:  github.com/FirstEverTech/Universal-Intel-Chipset-Updater
Download:  ChipsetUpdater-10.1-2025.11.5-Win10-Win11.exe
Version: 10.1-2025.11.5
  • A universal updater for all Intel chipsets — from the Sandy Bridge era (2nd-gen Core) all the way up to the newest platforms.
  • It automatically detects your hardware and installs the latest drivers (unlike Intel’s Driver & Support Assistant).
This project has undergone comprehensive analysis by multiple AI security experts to ensure code quality and reliability.
The tool achieved an average security score of 9.1/10 across all independent assessments:

Grok  - 9.7/10 - "Highest score ever given to a community driver utility - Safe for corporate deployment"
ChatGPT  - 9.4/10 - "Safest, most stable, and most professionally engineered version"
Gemini  - 9.0/10 - "Exceeds standards expected of community-developed tools"
Copilot  - 8.6/10 - "Strong project with excellent transparency and security improvements"
DeepSeek  - 8.5/10 - "Automated tool with verification mechanisms for Intel driver updates"
Claude  - 8.3/10 - "Best open-source tool in its category with leadership position"

 

This tool has been scanned using VirusTotal and received 0/98, confirming they are completely safe.
I’d be happy to hear your feedback, bug reports, and improvement suggestions on the GitHub repositories!

This might be interesting to some of you…

The Intel Chipset Device Software package has been with us for about a quarter of a century. Early versions were released in the early 2000s — for example, version 3.20.1008 has a release date of June 9, 2001. Over time, Intel kept adding support for new devices and removing older, legacy ones as they reached end-of-life. Because of that constant churn, it’s extremely difficult to determine the last driver version for every single device… unless you collect all installer packages and check manually — which is exactly what I did. 😄

I downloaded every Intel installer I could find from various corners of the internet — 88 packages in total, starting from 10.0.13.0 and ending at 10.1.20314.8688. I then extracted all of them, giving me access to 4,832 individual driver files. Each driver package contains multiple Hardware Identifiers (HWIDs) referencing specific devices — in my dataset that resulted in 2,641 unique HWIDs. Based on that, I built a database containing 82,663 relations, and after filtering and deduplication I generated a complete list of all supported devices along with their newest driver version and the package in which it appears.

Here’s the list: github.com/FirstEverTech/Universal-Intel...et_Drivers_Latest.md

After that, I created an updater tool that uses the data from this list — you can download it from the repository above. 😊


v10.1-2025.11.8 - Release Notes New Features & Improvements
  • Enhanced platform detection: Added automatic detection for Intel platforms that use Windows 11 24H2 inbox drivers (e.g., Meteor Lake)
  • Improved user communication: Clear informational messages when Windows inbox drivers are detected
  • Smart exclusion system: Platforms with Package = None in the database are automatically excluded from updates
  • Better date handling: Windows inbox driver dates now use digital signature dates from corresponding .cat files
Technical Updates
  • Updated parsing logic: Script now identifies Windows inbox-only platforms during hardware detection
  • Enhanced error handling: Improved debug messages and logging for platform detection
  • Streamlined user experience: Separate section for Windows inbox platforms in the output
Notes
  • No INF database changes: This update only improves the detection and handling logic
  • Backward compatible: Fully compatible with existing INF database format
  • Future-proof: Automatically handles new platforms marked with Package = None
Bug Fixes
  • Fixed potential false positives for unsupported platforms
  • Improved handling of platforms without separate Intel Chipset Device Software packages
