You can download the driver setup from the official website. Direct links for both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions are available there.

Windows 11 users can go ahead and download the 64-bit version, while if you are on Windows 10, first check the system architecture and then proceed with the installation. Once downloaded, simply run the setup and follow the on-screen instructions.

Alternatively, you can download Intel Driver & Support Assistant to automatically detect and install Wireless Bluetooth driver version 23.30.0.

The latest Intel Wireless Bluetooth driver promises a series of improvements and you should install it immediately.

It’s all the more critical because Intel Wireless Bluetooth Package version 22.250.0 won’t be supported after April 8, 2024, and subsequently, you won’t receive any functional or security updates.

If you find any bugs in the latest driver version, share them with our readers in the comments section.
