Hello. Why after installing the latest drivers Wireless AC 8260 AD-Hoc mode is not supported ???

For older drivers access point Ad-Hoc (CMD) worked great.

After installing the anniversary update for Windows 10 is not possible to install older than 18.40.0.12.

The problem is the drivers .... I ask why?
