Having trouble with NVM Update Utility for Intel 82579V
I've been getting e1cexpress errors in Event Viewer (Event ID 27, Intel(R) 82579V Gigabit Network Connection Network link is disconnected). So I uninstalled my current Intel NIC driver (18.3) and applied the NVM Update Utility.
Problem is, how do I know if the update has been applied? I followed the instructions to the T and this is what's showing in cmd,
To test and see if it's a driver issue I installed a older driver (16.8.1). After the older driver was installed e1cexpress errors don't appear in Event Viewer anymore which leads me to believe it's a driver issue, but I'm still curious how do I tell if the NVM Update was applied or not.LVDASKU version 1.2.2

Seems like an issue with 18.3 and the latest driver on Intel's website is 18.5.
