Your Hardware ID shows that you have an old Bluetooth 4.0 adapter, so you cannot use the latest v21.x drivers. The latest driver that supports your old/end-of-life device is 20.100.5.1.

Any confirmation that this device (of mine)
1. has reached the EOL stage
&
2. That v20.100.5.1 driver is the last one for this particular h/w

This is still the AC-3160 chip?
Almost the same as before , except the Self-Service Support begins December 31, 2020 (whatever this means).
However, I unpacked the last package v21.10.1 of your driver v20.100.5.1 and comparing this with newer packages, the itbusb.inf file is dependent your bth.inf.
I would try to install the latest package, which contains v20.100.6.4, maybe it works.

He doesn't need to use the latest v21.x drivers, the package contains also a 20.x driver which could be suitable

Yes, I remember that you told me that the main support will end soon on June 2020 so am hoping for any new update confirmation (if released).

I will wait for your test result, lemme know here.

I don't have a AC-3160 chipset, but fired up an old notebook with the N-7260.
Unfortunately, the Setup program failed, by telling me this program cannot run on my notebook. Also installation by device manager didn't work.
Regardless of that, you still can try, because I believe the AC-3160 is newer than my N-7260. More than a error message that it can't be installed cannot happen.
