Even though System Information is a tool that shows all there is to know about your system’s components (hardware and software), we don’t really like the way it displays information. Instead of using it, we prefer the much simpler tool named Device Manager. Why? Because with just a few clicks or taps, you can see and manage all the devices installed on your system, view the devices for which you did not install the appropriate drivers and also view and manage “hidden” devices. If we made you curious to learn more, read this tutorial to find out everything you need to know about using the Device Manager in Windows:

 

NOTE: This tutorial contains instructions that work in Windows 8.1

 

In Windows 8.1, the fastest way to open the Device Manager is to search for it. Switch to the Start screen and start typing the word “device”. Then, click or tap on the Device Manager search result.

A second way to open the Device Manager in Windows 8.1 is to use the power user menu. Right click or tap and hold on the Windows button from the bottom left corner of the screen and then click or tap on the Device Manager shortcut. Note that you can also press the Alt + X keys on your keyboard to quickly open the power user menu.

A third method to open the Device Manager in Windows 8.1 is to use the Control Panel.  Launch the Control Panel and go to the “Devices and Printers” section from the “Hardware and Sound” category. There, you’ll find an entry for the Device Manager.

Alternatively, you can also access the Device Manager from the Computer Management console.

No matter which path you chose to open the Device Manager, this is what its window should look like in Windows 8.1:
