No, you do not need any 'catch up' you can install the latest release directly.The latest (last) Windows 10 driver version is 18.33.17.1, so yes, you do need an upgrade.No, these adapters (Wireless-AC/N 7260 or Wireless-AC 3160) only support WiFi 5.Restore Ethernet cable and/or reenable wireless. Manually shutdown and reboot your computer.

Install the downloaded Wireless driver package.

Install the downloaded Bluetooth driver package (my rule: always install Bluetooth first).

From the Device Manager applet, check the Network Adapters section for an entry for Intel Dual Channel Wireless-AC (or -N) 7260 and check the Bluetooth section for an entry for Intel Wireless Bluetooth that has an Intel driver associated with it.

When prompted, choose to 'Discard Settings'.

Uninstall each instance of Intel PROSet/Wireless Software and/or Intel Wireless Bluetooth that is present.

From the Apps & Features applet, check for instances of Intel PROSet/Wireless Software and Intel Wireless Bluetooth.

Note this Wireless disable must be of type that will stay disabled across reboots. Unplug Ethernet cable and/or disable wireless. Don't try to install them just have the packages available there.

Make sure you have the Bluetooth and Wireless packages on the machine to be updated.
