PROSet for Windows* Device Manager
Intel® PROSet for Windows* Device Manager is an extension to the Windows Device Manager. When you
install the Intel PROSet software, additional tabs are automatically added to Device Manager.
NOTES:
l You must have administrator rights to install or use Intel PROSet for Windows Device Man-
ager.
l Intel PROSet for Windows Device Manager and the IntelNetCmdlets module for
WindowsPowerShell* require the latest driver and software package for your Intel Ethernet
devices. Please download the most recent driver and software package for your operating
system from www.intel.com.
l On recent operating systems, older hardware may not support Intel PROSet for Windows
Device Manager and the IntelNetCmdlets module for WindowsPowerShell. In this case, the
Intel PROSet tabs may not be displayed in the Windows Device Manager user interface, and
the IntelNetCmdlets may display an error message stating that the device does not have an
Intel driver installed.
