As for Intel Arc A-series graphics, which are starting to slowly make their way to the market, those get updates separately, and they don't actually have support for Windows 11 version 22H2 just yet, but presumably, a new driver update is coming soon. Both 11th- and 12th-generation Intel processors have Intel Iris Xe graphics, and there's also the discrete Intel Iris Xe Max GPU, all of which are still on the mainstream support cycle. All the products being dropped predate the Iris Xe graphics architecture, which debuted with the 11th-generation of Intel mobile processors and brought along significant performance improvements for integrated graphics. One set (in this case, version 31.0.101.2111) is aimed at these legacy products, and the other (31.0.101.3222) is meant for the more modern models. Starting with this release, each driver package contains two sets of driver files. These models will now be on a legacy support model, meaning they'll only get critical fixes and security updates, and usually on a quarterly cadence. Intel Atom, Pentium, and Celeron processor graphics to a legacy software support model. Software updates for these products will move to a quarterly release cadence or with software releases as needed. Intel will provide software support for affected products on critical fixes and security vulnerabilities only. With this release of its Intel Graphics drivers, the company is also splitting up support for older processors, specifically products that are part of the 6th through 10th generations of Intel processors. Tested on Win 10 圆4 21H1 & 21H2 and works really fine for me. As of July 27th, 2022, Intel will be moving 6th - 10th Gen Intel Processor Graphics and related Intel Atom, Pentium, and Celeron processor graphics to a legacy software support model. However, as you might be able to tell from the version numbers above, that's not the only piece of news here.
