Details: UIUPrep now supports HTTP/s source locations, (including 1E Nomad discovered cache locations). Requirements: IP protocol access to desired source locations; Internet or Intranet. 1E Nomad Application ONLY: UIUPrep will automatically determine which mode to use (HTTP, HTTPS, or SMB) based on the 1E Nomad settings discovered in the WinPE registry. Please contact UIU Support for additional detail specific to this environment. GENERAL FEATURES: If the HTTP/s features are enabled you MUST have specified a database version using the requisite advanced switch. That switch is -driverudbname %filename%.udb. for example: “-driverudbname DB-24-09-10.udb” for the September 10th, 2024 release. This version must be available in any repository that a machine might chose from %UIURepository%\repository\*.udb The UIU Log location remains the same, however the logging format has changed. UIUPrep’s processes will now output in the standard CMTrace readable format, viewing with Notepad or other text editor is no longer recommended. Because of this, when viewing in CMTrace, there may now be additional information in the information section located at the bottom of the CMTrace window for any given logged item/line that is selected. Support has been included for WinPE version 10.1.26100.1 in order to support modern WADK versions.
Requirements: This feature requires no local infrastructure and requires that UIUPREP to be locally available to the Target Machine. Internet access is required. Details:
Requirements: Access to local infrastructure or to the Internet is required. Details: In order to allow the UIU to operate in a live, online Windows operating system, an Administrator may either invoke UIUPREP at the target machine using CMD or PowerShell, or via a prepared batch file (locally or through an application deployment solution), or using a task sequence command element in an enterprise management solution. e.g. >UIUPREP.exe -licensekey “XXX” -packagepath “\\server\UIURepository” If combining with the -BBCLOUD Command Line option, to obtain the most recent drivers, using the most recent UDB release: e.g. >UIUPREP.exe -run -licensekey “XXX” -bbcloud NOTICE: Some drivers may require a reboot to be utilized in a live, Windows OS.

Device driver additions and modifications since the May 6, 2026 Release.
The full driver database exceeds 63Gb in size (63.8 Gb IMP). Please follow the guidelines below for optimal performance. This database release still covers Windows 7 through Windows 11 (64-bit only).
USB Flash drives need to be formatted with the NTFS file system before the driver database will successfully transfer. Network share access is recommended.
The Big Bang Support Team would like to remind our customers to please clear out any drivers represented in the Custom folder(s) prior to testing with a new version of the UIU Driver Database as neglecting to do so may result in false negative installations. Please contact a UIU Support representative with questions or concerns.
Device driver additions and modifications since the October 20, 2025 Release.
Symptoms: A vulnerability exists in Dell ControlVault firmware versions prior to 5.15.10.14 (for ControlVault3) and 6.2.26.36 (for ControlVault 3 Plus). This vulnerability, identified as CVE-2025-25050, is an out-of-bounds write issue within the cv_upgrade_sensor_firmware functionality. An attacker could potentially exploit this by sending a crafted ControlVault API call, leading to the vulnerability.. Resolution: UIU has removed all previous versions of Dell Control Vault drivers from the database and replaced them with the recommended updated versions from Dell. Clarification to Avoid Confusion: The Driver Dates and Version numbers, as well as the Firmware Version do no match the Package date and version numbers offered by Dell. This is due to the Drivers and firmware being published before Dell has published the package. Here is what to expect from the two new Dell Control Vault packages: 5.15.10.14 (Firmware Version: 5.15.007.0) bcmnfcser.inf DriverVer = 09/23/2024,5.15.2.2 bcmnfcusb.inf DriverVer = 09/23/2024,5.15.2.2 cvusbdrv.inf DriverVer = 01/30/2025,5.15.9.9 ushwbfdrv.inf DriverVer = 10/28/2024,5.15.5.3 6.2.26.36 (Firmware Version: 6.2.024.0) bcmnfcser.inf DriverVer = 09/03/2024,6.2.9.3 bcmnfcusb.inf DriverVer = 01/23/2025,6.2.25.7 cvusbdrv.inf DriverVer = 01/31/2025,6.2.25.24 ushwbfdrv.inf DriverVer = 09/26/2024,6.2.15.4
The full driver database exceeds 65Gb in size (65.2 Gb IMP). Please follow the guidelines below for optimal performance. This database release still covers Windows 7 through Windows 10 (64-bit only).
Symptoms: When accessing local UIU Repository locations, maximum concurrent connections may be reached, denying additional location requests, particularly in high-volume environments. Resolution: The UIUPREP network connection logic has been redesigned to proactively open/close network connections, enabling the UIU to address a greater number of UIU Repositories.
