Description
Thanks for the update to 0.5.1.24102.
Improvements layout list "Get driver information"
- The function provides all available information but in a not very practical way.
- The column "Original file name" in the list doesn't add any information.
- The list should categorize drivers by class description.
- The list should show additional main columns like: provider name, critical, signature status. (see example)
These additions would improve the usability of the list a lot.

Research direction
Start at the “Get driver information” entry point and review how its driver list is assembled and displayed. Use the attached Driver List Example as the intended layout reference. Done means the list omits the unhelpful “Original file name” column, groups drivers by class description, and shows provider name, critical status, and signature status.
