Intel Wireless WiFi 22.xxx

@ricktendo:
Thanks for the uploaded and linked driver.
Unfortunately I cannot use it, because the HardwareIDs of my on-board Intel Bluetooth device has the DeviceID PID_0026, which is not supported by your linked driver.
Obviously Intel hasn't yet released the complete Intel Wireless Bluetooth driverpack to Microsoft. That may be the reason why Windows Update hasn't offered the new driver for my system.

The DevID on mine is PID_0029 and I force installed the driver... it works perfectly.

You should never force install a driver, it will not install correctly.

Anyway Bluetooth drivers updated on 9/22/2020

Driver INF is same version offered on MS Update but is different, notice how the UWD driver only uses the files in DriverStore (%13% instead of copying them a second time to Drivers (%12%)

I force them all the time. And when they don't work, I'll hook a debugger to the system. In many cases, they'll work just fine with a few tweaks or first time around.

DUMo reports a new Bluetooth driver, v22.0.0.2, is available. Does anyone know anything about that?

That's right.
