Hello,
I am trying to install an Intel wifi driver whose version is older than that installed and am getting "installation blocked - a newer product version is already installed".
If i say in device manager that i want to upgrade and manually point it to an older driver folder it says "The best driver software for your device is already installed Windows has determined that the driver software for your device is up to date."
If i uninstall the driver and ask it to be deleted, upon restart it will load the old driver then, few minutes later, it will automatically change to the newer and pop up a window asking me to restart. I don't know if it did actually change to the newer before i restart(?!) yet, in the device manager as well as in the network adapter properties- configure - driver, the new one becomes listed
Is there a way to force it to install the driver i want?
Thanks in advance for your time
