Bluetooth Driver Installation Problem.
I have a program of my other Dell Computer (an inspiration 5570 Running the latest version of Windows 11) which requires an updated Bluetooth driver to run. When I try to update the driver through device manager it says I have the latest version. I found a later version on both the Dell and Intel Websites. When I try to install the drivers from those locations the installation process seems to go okay, but when I go back and check the current version it still shows the old one.
Current Driver---20.100.10.7
New Driver Found---22.50.02
Any help would be appreciated, thank you

Hi
Hope this helps ...
The Intel Bluetooth driver version 20.100.10.7 is an older version of the Intel Wireless Bluetooth driver. This version was released on December 22, 2021, with a file size of 380 KB. It is compatible with Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, and 7 operating systems, supporting both 64-bit and 32-bit architectures.
However, as of February 2025, this driver version is significantly outdated. The latest available version of the Intel Wireless Bluetooth driver is 23.110.0.4, released on December 18, 2024. Intel recommends updating to the latest version for improved functionality and security.If you are currently using version 20.100.10.7, it is strongly advised to upgrade to a more recent version. The upgrade process may require the following steps:
It's important to note that some users have reported issues when attempting to upgrade from older versions, including problems with driver rollback and error codes. If you encounter any difficulties during the upgrade process, you may need to perform a clean reinstall of the driver and a cold reboot of your system.
