🚀 Release: v2026.06.0006

🆕 What's New

  • Intel Bluetooth PCI Enumerator Support

    • The updater now detects and updates Intel Bluetooth devices connected via the PCI bus (CNVi / discrete PCIe).
    • Supported hardware IDs:
      • PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A876 (AX200/AX201, Wi‑Fi 6/CNVi)
      • PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_4D76 (AX211, Wi‑Fi 6E CNVi)
      • PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_E476 (AX210/BE200, Wi‑Fi 6E/7 PCIe)
      • PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_E376 (BE202/BE204, Wi‑Fi 7 CNVi)
    • These devices appear in Device Manager as Intel(R) Bluetooth(R) PCI Enumerator.
  • Shared CAB Package for PCI

    • Instead of one CAB per device (as with USB), all PCI devices share a single CAB file named intel_bt_<version>_pci.cab.
    • The companion download info file is intel-bt-<version>_pci.txt (SHA256, primary link, backup URL).
    • The scanner (BT-Platform-Scanner v4.4) automatically generates this structure.
  • Unified Device Detection

    • Get-IntelBTDevice now searches for both USB\VID_8087&PID_xxxx and PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_xxxx.
    • Returns an object with Type property (USB or PCI), and PID field holds either the USB PID or the PCI DEV (4 hex digits).
  • Versioned Download Handling for PCI

    • Get-VersionedBTDownloadInfo accepts a new parameter $DeviceType.
    • For Type = "PCI" it requests intel-bt-<version>_pci.txt instead of the per‑PID file.
    • The rest of the installation pipeline remains unchanged – same SHA256 verification, digital signature check, and pnputil staging.
  • Updated Banner and Version

    • Tool version: 2026.06.0006 (displayed as 2026.06.0006 in the header).
    • Author line changed to Author: Marcin Grygiel / GitHub.com/FirstEverTech.
    • Removed the separate Visit: GitHub.com/... line – the banner is cleaner and more compact.
    • All comments in the script are now written in English.

📋 Release Files

  • universal-intel-wifi-bt-driver-updater.ps1 — Main updater script (v2026.06.0006)
  • WiFi-BT-Updater-2026.06.0006-Win10-Win11.exe — Self‑extracting package (includes the updated script)
  • universal-intel-wifi-bt-driver-updater-2026.06.0006-ps1.sha256 — SHA256 checksum for the script

🔧 Dependencies & Compatibility

  • Backward compatible — The updater works with older intel-bt-driver-latest.md files that only contain USB devices. PCI devices are simply ignored if not present.
  • Requires updated scanner — To generate the new MD format with PCI section, use BT-Platform-Scanner v4.4 (or later). The old scanner will still produce USB‑only MD files.

🐛 Bug Fixes (in this release)

  • None – this is a feature release. All previous critical fixes (v2026.04.0005) are included.

📝 Notes for Users with Intel Bluetooth PCI Enumerator

  • If you have such a device, the updater will now display it during hardware detection and offer the latest available PCI driver (currently 24.40.0.3 from Intel/Microsoft).
  • Installation is fully automatic – the tool downloads the shared CAB, verifies its signature, and updates your device.
  • After installation, you may need to restart your computer.
