Intel I210-T1 GbE NIC receives non-functioning driver via Windows Update

[mfessler]

Hello,

I got (automatically) a new driver installed today via Windows Update, which unfortunately does not work.

OS: Win10 21H2 x64 (19044.1826)
NIC: I210-T1 GbE
Driver: Intel - Net - 13.0.14.0
Error: Code 37, Device PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1533&SUBSYS_0003103C&REV_03\6805CAFFFFAC2BA300 had a problem starting.

After downgrading to version 12.18.11.1 the card works again.

It is a PCIe card from an HP Business PC.
Is in such a case Intel or HP responsible for the driver upload to the Windows Update Catalog?
What is the correct way to report a problem like this?

Thanks and greetings,
Martin
