Updated Intel 11th Gen to Win11 - Pain and no Bluetooth (alien.top)

Hi Frameworkers,

I've just updated my 11th-gen Intel Framework 13 to Windows 11 after fighting it for two and half hours. The normal error messages that are so vague they're meaningless, having to run a downloadable installer as admin because Windows Update can't manage it, freeing up an extra 25GB of disk space, and culling particular background processes before running the tool. I must learn about dual-booting Linux soon, arrrgh!

Now "successfully" running Win11 and running the Framework driver package installer - three times - I have no Bluetooth. This died first when completing Windows updates in preparation for the update, and then is still MIA.

The installer claims to have installed the Bluetooth driver but I can't see it in device manager, add any devices or turn it on anywhere.

Help? :(

DOS troubleshooting sucked. I still have nitemares about battling QEMM 386 to free up a few more KB to get a game running.

For me troubleshooting wasn't the issue with memory. Especially once I know the difference between extending expanded etc etc. Of course I forgot them all now lol. Manga shoes typically revolve around irqs and other resources. However once I got a mental map of all my devices and what resources they were using I can typically resolve conflicts unless I have two devices that conflicts no matter what you change. Then it's not really a troubleshooting issue it's more of a resource issue and I know it.

I remember making a multichoice auto exact file that lets me customize how to set up memory management for specific set of games
