Yes. The way to just leave them there after we are done is called KTD (Keep The Driver)

DriverPacks does not install drivers through KTD...
In fact KTD is not recomended by me personaly. it is only good for what i call a Test Bed computer. like a technicians machine on his work bench to use for testing customers cards. (quickly identifying if an issue is hardware or software releated.)
In any other environment;
if you are adding hardware you are physically going to be at the machine and have it open anyway. might as well take the latest greatest driver?
I assume if it is new it won't need hardware added soon. why burn 1.5gig of HDD space on out dated drivers?
Turn KTD off unless you plan on rotating hardware on the machine regularly (like a test machine)
if you are running KTD on a test machine it is likely that you will be reloading it often, and would then be a good DriverPacks tester and have the latest packs all the time.
