Where i have used WinZip Driver Updater to update (free) a number of drivers that it claimed were out of date, will they cause harm and should i seek to restore the original drivers if that is possible?

In some cases, the app may cause unwanted notifications that ask users to upgrade it to the licensed version, which could be a frustrating experience for them.
Generally, if incompatible drivers are installed on a Windows machine, it could lead to crashes and other issues. If you are not experiencing any of such problems, it is likely that the drivers you downloaded are compatible and safe to use (if you are using the latest Windows version, drivers from insecure sources would simply not be allowed).
Therefore, you could keep the drivers that were installed, as they are unlikely to pose any harm to your system. However, as mentioned before, WinZip Driver Updater might engage in some unwanted activities on your computer and keep nagging you to pay for software eventually.
Otherwise, WinZip Driver Updater does not pose any harm to your computer.
