    With the millions of updates they keep pushing, you’d think by now, they would have fixed their drivers going stale out of nowhere and shit just stops working until you remove and reinstall them and reboot, for some weird reason.

      Wut? If the driver fails for some reason, it gets restarted in the background and you get a small notification in the tray about that. That’s all, no need to reinstall anything.

        Ooooof. Just this last week I had to remove the drivers for my headsets completely, reboot and then reinstall. Same with the docking station. Shit happens all the time.

            Yup. A Plantronics headset. My docking station goes through this, too, where it just stops working. Then I’d have to remove the driver’s and reinstall. I know, it’s ridiculous.
