    Description

      Hi!
       
        I work with Windows 7; today "it occurred to me" update the drivers of my system to have supposedly better performance, but I've found that the Windows 7 Device Manager (out there updated the drivers-previously downloaded) deleted the Internet and USB drivers, so I will have to reinstall them again.
        My suggestion for ReactOS (to avoid similar problems) is that, in the Device Manager, when you select a device and want to update the driver, ReactOS backs up the driver(s) and then install the new one (I think Windows doesn't do this), so that if something goes wrong, the same popup menu should have the option to restore the driver, with a list of the previous drivers (dated even) and from there allow to restore the driver without problems. I hope you can implement something like that in ReactOS. Greetings.
