Network Controller Issues (M17x R3)

I recently had to do a full restore on my M17x R3.  I used the proper installation order, and everything was going smoothly until it came time to install the WLAN 1501 driver . 

Like a few others I have seen, I had an issue because it does not automatically install. I went to the device manager, right clicked on Network controller, and was going to try and install it manually by selecting the install file from the folder. The problem is, when i go to browse for the file, the only thing that shows up on the list are the folder names, there are no files inside the folders to select.

I have tried re-extracting the files and restarting my computer, but I haven't been able to find any resources on this particular issue. 

Help would be much appreciated!
