From Thumper's comments at 1337x:
Make sure to add below text in hosts files:
127.0.0.1 http://www.driver-soft.com
127.0.0.1 www.driver-soft.com
If it still doesn't work, then uninstall driver genius, restart your PC and reinstall again (Hosts files must be edited).

Here's how to edit the hosts file.

How to Edit Hosts File in Windows 10/11

The easiest way to Edit Hosts File in Windows 10/11 is to open Notepad as an administrator and navigate to hosts file location on your computer.

The important thing to remember is to open notepad as an administrator, otherwise windows will not allow you to save the altered hosts file. Good luck.
