[German]If any of you Windows 10 users are suffering from BlueScreen crashes and have an Intel WLAN/Bluetooth component on board, there may be a solution. Intel has released an update for its WiFi/Bluetooth driver to version 22.30.0, which is supposed to fix the BSOD problem under Windows 10. In addition, a WLAN detection problem is said to have been fixed because wireless adapters may not be able to connect to 5GHz networks.

Once again Intel and its drivers, which are a continuous source of problems in Windows 10 (see links at the end of the article). Some Windows 10 users probably suffered from sporadic blue screens triggered by the Intel WLAN/Bluetooth driver. Now Intel has updated its Wi-Fi (WLAN) and Bluetooth driver for Windows 10 to version 22.30.0. I had already seen this at the colleagues of deskmodder.de. Normally I won't mentioned such updates, but the colleagues from Bleeping Computer have persuaded me with this article to take a closer look at the changelog.
