Another computer problem on a third party website where I earn supplemental income answering computer and technology related questions. This problem deals with a Microsoft Windows driver being deleted. Here is the initial original question quoted verbatim.
I have an older ASUS laptop with Windows 7, I accidentally removed the Accessibility Tool Kit driver a few months ago. How can i get it back?
This individual was using a model K53U Asus laptop computer with Microsoft Windows seven operating system installed. This individual claimed that installing Microsoft Windows seven operating system updates, was not the culprit. You can download and install Snappy driver installer.
That software should detect any missing Microsoft Windows drivers. Snappy driver installer, is free software that will detect missing driver(s) as well as any driver updates. I would proceed with caution when working with Microsoft Windows drivers. One mistake can cause your Microsoft Windows computer to not boot properly.
Snappy driver installer does not have the most user friendly interface in my opinion. Also, Snappy driver installer is a stand alone application. Meaning that there is no setup.exe or install.exe to run.
There is no software installer that you need to open. Snappy driver installer comes in a .zip file format. You will need to unzip this software application program.
Microsoft Windows operating systems have a built in file decompress tool. You just right click the Snappy driver installer download and select “Extract Here”. This will extract the folder contents to the same folder that the compressed file is located in.
You can double click SDI_64_R1811 to open it. You will see a list of missing drivers or available driver updates. Select the Accessibility Tool Kit driver by placing a check into the empty box with your mouse and then click on the green “Install” button.
Depending on the size of the download, it will take some time to download and install. You may be required to restart your computer. Snappy driver installer has an expert mode, which I do not think is necessary for most end users that need to just install one driver.
I personally never mess around with Microsoft Windows hardware operating system drivers. All it takes is one faulty driver and your computer may not boot correctly. Also, Snappy driver installer has a “Create Restore Point” feature.
What this does is create a Microsoft Windows restore point at the exact time that you select that option. This allows you to use Microsoft Windows system restore, in case that driver has problems. This is a safety feature that could save your behind and keep you from having to get out of a major quagmire.
Snappy driver installer is only one of two driver installer tools that I have used over the past ten years. The other one is called Driver Pack solution. That program is similar in nature.
As a computer technician these tools can really save time without having to download each individual hardware driver from the Internet. Also, sometimes you may run across a computer that is old, and you may not find the missing driver(s) on the original equipment manufacturer’s website. This is where a tool like Snappy driver installer or Driver pack solution can come in handy.
However, any time you install or update hardware device drivers, you might want to proceed with caution. I never wasted time updating drivers in the decades that I have used computers. This to me is a huge waste of time and could possibly result in a non booting operating system.
The only time I messed with hardware drivers is when they were missing or they might be possibly buggy, causing blue screens, causing another problem, etc. If you have experience dealing with hardware drivers, then Snappy driver installer and Driver Pack solution can speed up the hardware driver installation process when reinstalling the computer operating system. These instructions were written for an Asus model K53U computer with Microsoft Windows seven operating system.
However, you can use these instructions and tips for other computer brands, models, and Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Nakamoto videopad at t OE OE evade this
0:08
is my second recording of this video
0:10
normally I don't record no I I don't
0:14
priest I don't script my videos and it's
0:17
all freestyle and usually I don't even
0:19
take us the second tape now most of my
0:21
videos is the first tape but this I
0:23
don't know why I was talking too long in
0:25
this video so let me cut to the chase
0:26
and I recorded a way too long of a video
0:29
for drivers but whatever I have an older
0:33
a soos laptop with Windows 7
0:34
I accidentally removed the 80 K driver a
0:37
few months ago how can I get it back
0:41
I think this might be the computer model
0:46
number aka 53 you they claimed that they
0:51
had not installed any recent Windows 7
0:54
updates here is the answer you might
1:00
want to stick around for overtime but I
1:01
don't want to record a video longer than
1:03
10 minutes you know I'm saying here is
1:05
the answer click on the link in the
1:07
description box below that will take you
1:09
to my website and it appears calm or you
1:11
can read in the abstract and I will
1:13
include a link to snappy driver
1:14
installer snappy driver installer that
1:17
is my go-to tool now when it comes to
1:19
reinstalling windows drivers that is
1:22
what fixed this problem they were
1:24
missing a driver and I instructed them
1:26
to download snappy driver installer and
1:29
run it and then install the missing
1:32
driver there are some caveats you can
1:38
leave now that's it
1:40
the rest is over time you need to be
1:44
careful here's my gold tip of this video
1:46
when it comes to drivers hardware
1:48
drivers you need to be careful
1:50
all's it takes is one mistake and you
1:53
could cause your computer not to boot
1:56
and that's not fear-mongering that's not
1:59
a lie that is reality especially with
2:03
Microsoft I've only used two driver
2:07
tools as a computer technician probably
2:10
in the last
2:12
10 to 15 years dry it snappy driver I
2:16
found I don't know three four years ago
2:19
yeah in my opinion the user interface is
2:24
not that user-friendly that's why you
2:27
might want to proceed with caution
2:29
there's an expert mode I would not use
2:32
expert mode unless you know what you're
2:34
doing you know I'm saying and you may
2:37
want to I don't give out orders I don't
2:40
give out advice or recommendations
2:42
however here's a tip with snappy driver
2:45
installer you can create a windows
2:48
restore point what that means is that if
2:52
the driver that you install [ __ ] up
2:54
your computer you may be able to fix
2:59
that problem or you'll just you'll be
3:00
able to rollback that driver that you
3:02
installed it might be buggy or causing
3:05
blue screens or causing problems or is
3:07
not the correct driver or somehow it got
3:09
installed or it's just you know it's not
3:11
kosher you know I'm saying no I'm not
3:14
Jewish but you know I just know I
3:16
thought that was an app riposte word you
3:18
know I'm saying oh that's right you
3:21
don't like me because I'm not European
3:23
pale-skinned oh you don't like me
3:25
because I'm not Christian oh you don't
3:27
like me because I'm not political I
3:33
don't choose the left or the right and
3:35
oh you don't like me because I just used
3:37
the Jewish term Oh oh my god oh and you
3:41
don't like me because I'm not religious
3:43
you know I'm saying and you don't like
3:47
the way I look alright
3:50
snappy driver installer there's a lite
3:55
version that I will link to try to keep
3:58
a simple stupid
3:58
yeah there's no need for you to use
4:00
expert mode just to install one driver
4:02
so what it will do is it will find any
4:06
missing drivers and it will have a list
4:12
it will also have a list of drivers that
4:17
may have updates so you need to be
4:18
careful you want to look for the missing
4:20
driver and you just place a check
4:25
in the box it has an empty box I don't
4:28
know why that is hi I could not want to
4:30
get too abstract and I could make all
4:32
kinds of jokes about that how Americans
4:34
don't think outside of a box I mean
4:39
place a check in the box and then it has
4:41
a big green button at the top that says
4:44
install I don't I would only probably
4:48
only install one driver at a time and
4:51
and this is a proposed for this video
4:53
because they only were missing one
4:54
driver but let's say hypothetically you
4:56
like snappy driver installer and you
4:59
want to use it from now on it has a
5:02
feature where you can install multiple
5:03
drivers at once but I you need to tread
5:06
carefully you may yeah if you start
5:09
installing all the drivers and all the
5:12
updates and you may have caused a
5:15
quagmire that you're not going to get
5:20
out of you're not no no you personally
5:22
you won't not probably a good idea one
5:26
driver at a time click on the check box
5:28
click uninstall it depends on the size
5:31
of the driver some video drivers can
5:34
take a while it just depends on have
5:35
some patience it'll download and then it
5:37
will install you may or may not have to
5:39
reboot your computer if you need to
5:41
restart your computer I think snappy
5:43
driver does prompt you and it also has a
5:46
feature to create a restore point which
5:49
will allow you to use Windows System
5:52
Restore in case something happens you
5:54
know I'm saying but it's up to you
5:58
snappy driver installer it is my
6:01
preferred tool but I don't have that
6:04
many customers it's been like what a
6:06
couple of weeks or a month since the
6:07
last customer I had that I actually
6:09
remotely connected in and then I used
6:11
snappy driver installer so it's not like
6:13
I use it every day you know I'm saying
6:15
the tool that I might include in my blog
6:19
post that I have not written yet and I
6:20
don't know what the search engine
6:22
optimized keyword in title will be
6:27
driver pack also driver package
6:33
driverpack solution
6:35
it's similar to snappy it has a light
6:38
version it has an online version that's
6:40
another thing you become aware with with
6:42
driver
6:42
excuse me snappy driver installer it has
6:45
a full version where it will download
6:49
everything you you can even create a
6:51
networked version but it's like what
6:54
four gigabyte six of gigabytes or
6:55
whatever it can be a huge download so
6:58
you might want to become aware that you
7:00
if you're a computer technician like I
7:02
am yeah that it's very useful you can
7:04
even burn a DVD and the same thing with
7:07
driverpack solution as a technician what
7:10
that allows you to do is that if you
7:12
reinstall the operating system on a
7:14
computer and you do not have internet
7:16
access for whatever reason I'm not I
7:19
don't wanted that grasp it if you do not
7:21
have internet access you have the DVD
7:23
and chances are I oh I I can't hundreds
7:26
of computers because I used to sell a
7:28
lot of used computers
7:29
I know I know [ __ ] the YouTube
7:31
technology chills the YouTube technology
7:33
chills frown upon use computers I don't
7:36
know why that has [ __ ] them but me
7:39
personally I've sold hundreds of used
7:41
computers and I've only had like one or
7:43
two well I think one return and that
7:46
customer was a year later and she and I
7:50
sold to her another used computer for
7:52
eighty-four like eighty dollars instead
7:55
of me charging eighty dollars to fix her
7:57
computer I think I think the power
8:00
supply failed on it and I did not have
8:02
it was one of these compacts that have a
8:06
specific proprietary power supply that I
8:10
didn't have available I would have had a
8:13
probably order from eBay or Amazon and I
8:16
just sold her another used computer and
8:18
I just took the hard work the hard drive
8:19
out and it booted up just fine anyways
8:21
that's an old trick but anyways I don't
8:23
want to digress about that I probably
8:26
used driverpack solution hundreds and
8:29
hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of
8:30
times on used computers and also
8:32
customers that I had to reinstall
8:34
windows it can be very convenient but
8:37
you need to be careful because when it
8:39
comes to drivers you can cause a massive
8:41
quagmire so that's my goal tip in this
8:44
video when it comes to drivers that
8:46
leads me personally I never [ __ ] with
8:48
dry
8:49
unless absolutely necessary I do not
8:52
update drivers I don't have a driver
8:55
updater there's a lot of those are in
8:57
Affairs even the legit ones are garbage
8:58
and trash and they can cause problems
9:00
plus they run in the background
9:02
plus they have automatic updates oh holy
9:05
[ __ ]
9:07
automatic up driver updates for hardware
9:09
are you insane what could happen is that
9:12
the computer will just [ __ ] up or the
9:15
next time it reboots it may not blue
9:17
correctly driver hardware drivers for my
9:21
experiences especially with Windows
9:22
operating system all the way back to
9:24
Windows 95 very finicky very very very
9:27
very very finicky you need to proceed
9:32
with caution you your boss that [ __ ]
9:35
or [ __ ] wants their TPS report turn in
9:38
on time tomorrow morning at [ __ ] 9:00
9:40
a.m. well you just [ __ ] updated your
9:43
drivers because you thought you were the
9:45
[ __ ] and now the computer doesn't boot
9:47
and well you can't complete your TPS
9:51
report because yours you you claim that
9:54
you're not to preneur and and now you're
9:59
only contract your only client told you
10:02
to [ __ ] off and fired your ass because
10:05
you didn't turn in their goddamn TPS
10:07
report on time because you [ __ ] around
10:09
with the drivers as it decades nah I
10:13
never ever [ __ ] with drivers never I
10:15
learned quickly with Windows 95 very
10:18
finicky very touchy very fickle so
10:21
that's my tip my gold tip in this video
10:23
proceed with caution but snappy driver
10:26
pretty good never had that many problems
10:28
with it you just need to proceed with
10:30
caution you need to know how to use it
10:33
oh and here's some additional bonus tips
10:35
I think I'm about the 10-minute mark I
10:37
got running snappy driver is the
10:40
standalone application there is no set
10:42
up that exe there is no install dot exe
10:44
there is no installer it's a portable
10:47
version it's a it's a standalone
10:49
application that it that's basically
10:51
portable there's two versions of it
10:54
there's a 32-bit there's a 64-bit it's
10:58
been at Lee probably a month since I
11:00
used it I think it's SR idea
11:02
see I think is the 32-bit I could be
11:04
wrong I think the 64-bit is SR i-64 dot
11:08
exe it's something like that on 64-bit
11:11
hardware you run the 64-bit version it's
11:13
logical on 32-bit Hardware u1 were you
11:16
run 32-bit version of snappy it's
11:18
logical if you get the wrong one it's
11:20
not going to work and that's that's
11:22
gonna you're gonna know that's gonna be
11:24
obvious right it's a zip file so you're
11:28
gonna have to extract it what you do is
11:30
you download it the zip file you
11:33
right-click and you choose extract all I
11:37
my tip is to extract here if there is an
11:41
extract here option select extract here
11:45
because what it will do if you're on the
11:47
desktop or if you're in your downloads
11:48
folder whatever folder you're at it will
11:51
extract the snap B folder right there so
11:55
you don't have to go on search the same
11:57
folder that you downloaded will be it
11:59
the snappy software will be extracted
12:01
too it makes it easier then you find the
12:06
correct executable 64 bit for 64-bit
12:10
hardware 6 32-bit for 32-bit hardware
12:12
then your it's going to open up it's got
12:14
a graphical user interface look for the
12:17
big green install button but proceed
12:19
with caution I don't think that's
12:21
productive to use the expert mode and
12:23
last year like a computer technician or
12:25
unless you have a lot of experiences
12:27
with drivers because you don't want to
12:30
install the wrong updates you don't want
12:33
to install the wrong I just yeah no no
12:36
no no no no no no no no no no no unless
12:40
you like to you know fix computer
12:43
problems or the [ __ ] of it you know I'm
12:47
saying my old adage is keep its well
12:51
don't fix it if it's not broken if it's
12:56
not broken
12:56
why the [ __ ] fix it adios
