Windows AIQ Driver Setup

Windows AIQ Driver Setup

Use this page when preparing a Windows machine to run AIQ browser, desktop, or device-related automation that depends on local drivers. Match driver versions to the target browser, operating system, and AIQ environment.

Preparation

  • Install drivers with an account that has the required Windows permissions.
  • Confirm the driver version matches the browser or application version used by the test.
  • Store drivers in a controlled path and document that path in the environment configuration.
  • Allow the driver through endpoint protection only when approved by IT or the customer security policy.
  • Restart related services or the machine when the driver installation requires it.

Validation workflow

  1. Run a basic AIQ smoke test that starts the target browser or desktop application.
  2. Confirm the driver process starts and stops cleanly.
  3. Review output logs for path, permission, or version mismatch errors.
  4. Record the driver version and installation path for future upgrades.
