Intel update on MS update gone

I don’t remember the exact display information, but the mysterious Intel update in Microsoft Update is gone, on my Win 7 Pro 64-bit machine. It was Intel 10.3.something, and there was no explanation what it was.
It’s not in MS update any more.
Any ideas why?

But the Intel-System updates are still available at M$ Update Catalog. Likely, they are only gone from your cptr bc of certain reasons,

Apparently they finally acknowledged the problem they caused for some devices

someday maybe i’ll learn?

i just opened win7 update and had

MSRT Feb which I ran

KB2952664 (usually hide) left it be because you guys keep saying don’t hide updates

and since i run an Intel 7260 ac with Bluetooth, a driver update for the Bluetooth radio section. Well, I installed the Bluetooth driver update and guess what? The “new,” driver took away my ability to cycle the Bluetooth section (radio) on/off from the settings…

wow, why, oh why do “they,” keep on breaking things? I used to trust that an “update” was just that.

So, roll back driver and regain control of the Bluetooth adapter.

Lesson (re) learned!

So sorry!
Get your driver updates from your OEM computer mfg’s or the device mfg’s website. Microsoft”s drivers are a no no. And yes, they break things.
Uncheck them every time.
