TPLink UB500 Driver issue

Hey everyone,
Recently I installed Windows 7. I've been trying to get the driver for the TPLink UB500 Bluetooth Adapter (BT 5.0 if that helps).
When I extracted the ZIP folder with the driver, there were different folders for different operating systems and architechures (for example: Win7X64, Win7X86, Win10X64, etc).

When I opened the Win7X64 folder to get the driver installer, there was no .exe or .msi executable file. It was just a ton of .sys, .inf, and .cat files. Same with the drivers for x86.

I tried the Windows 10 driver because the 8.1 driver had the same issue, and the bluetooth adapter wasn't detecting bluetooth devices to connect to.

Anyone know how to fix this and where I can get a working Windows 7 driver for this bluetooth adapter?
I have also included a picture of the files for the Windows 7 driver.
