I'm having the same problem. Rerunning the installer and choosing repair doesn't fix the problem. Quite annoying.

I am having same problem (my hardware is Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200 160Mhz). I can see no failure message - but absolutely refuses to update the Bluetooth driver (current 23.60.0.1).

I have tried updating via the autmated Intel Driver & Support, as well as downloading and then tried download/running the executable BT-24.20.0-64UWD-Win10-Win11.exe .

Also tried removing current driver (via Device Manager) and running the EXE - but the 23.60.0.1 version showed up (Windows must have stored it?). I have unpaired and removed all devices using Bluetooth and tried installing - still no luck (Change and Repair options do nothing - no error message that I can see however- just the same version of the driver remains when looking at Intel Wireless Bluetooth in Device Manager).

1. What is the exact model of your wireless adapter?

2. Are there any error message? If there is, please share a screenshot.

3. Screenshot of the Device Manager showing the Bluetooth section.

I look forward to your response.
