Intel NUC8i7HNK NUC Kit Thunderbolt Driver 17.3.72.250 for Windows 10 64-bit Description

Installs the Thunderbolt bus driver for the Intel NUC Kits NUC8i7HNK and NUC8i7HVK. The Thunderbolt bus driver is required if you plan to connect Thunderbolt devices.

If it has been installed, updating (overwrite-installing) may fix problems, add new functions, or expand existing ones. Even though other OSes might be compatible as well, we do not recommend applying this release on platforms other than the ones specified.

Changes:

- Added support for Titan Ridge host controllers (JHL7540 & JHL7340)
- Added support for PRE-BOOT ACL feature (deprecating previous implementation from 17.1.64.250): Devices that can be used for boot or during pre-boot need to be pre-approved. Pre-Boot ACL solution enables device pre boot approval by maintaining an access control list in the FW as well
- Fixed race condition issues for supporting Selective Suspend (RTD3) state (refer to fixed issues #4927597 and #4927596 for more details)

To install this package please do the following:

- Make sure that all system requirements are met.
- Save the downloadable package on an accessible location (such as your desktop).
- Locate and double-click on the newly-downloaded file.
- Allow Windows to run the file (if necessary).
- Read EULA (End User License Agreement) and agree to proceed with the installation process.
- Follow the on-screen instructions.
- Close the wizard and perform a system reboot to allow changes to take effect. 

About Thunderbolt Drivers:

Windows operating systems automatically apply a generic driver that allows users to transfer files using the Thunderbolt port; however, installing the appropriate software can bring about significant changes.

If the proper Thunderbolt software is installed, systems will benefit from improved compatibility with different devices, numerous fixes regarding Thunderbolt issues, and various other changes that can increase transfer speed with external storage drives.

When it comes to the installation steps, simply check to make sure that the download record is compatible with your system characteristics, get the package, run the setup, and follow the on-screen instructions for a complete update.

Bear in mind that even though other OSes might be compatible, it would be best if you applied this package only on specific platforms. In addition to that, as technology evolves from one day to another, we recommended that you always use the latest software available.

That being said, click the download button, get and apply the present version and enjoy your newly updated system. Also, constantly check back with our website to find out when a new version is available.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
