By rolling back the drivers Jane would be able to use her lab equipment again.
To roll back a driver in Windows means to return the driver to the version that was last installed for the device. Rolling back a driver is an easy way to return a driver to a working version when a driver update fails to fix a problem or maybe even causes a new problem. Think of rolling back a driver as a quick and easy way to uninstall the latest driver and then reinstall the previous one, all automatically.
