Quick comparison:
- Intel (10.1.20490.8818)
- Dell (10.1.20524.8822 / sp173080.exe)
- Dell (10.1.20524.8822 / sp173237.exe)
- Dell (10.1.20524.8822 / sp173392.exe)
Dell removed the following platforms in
sp173392.exe (compared to Intel 10.1.20490.8818):
- CannonLake-H
- CannonLake-LP
- SunrisePoint-L
All Dell packages (
sp173080.exe, sp173237.exe and
sp173392.exe) support
WildcatLake (the same INF version), which is
not present in Intel's official 10.1.20490.8818.
Also, sp173080.exe had significantly fewer INF files than sp173392.exe, but that doesn't really matter – all INF files for platforms other than WildcatLake are
identical in version to those in Intel's 10.1.20490.8818.
Finally,
sp173237.exe - this package adds full support for
Wildcat Lake (PMT, HID, and system devices via null driver). Also includes an ACM for
Panther Lake (TXT component).

My updater installs everything automatically, so why am I even checking this? 🤡
