How to fix it
Download and run the Intel® Chipset Device Software for Intel® NUC so Windows* properly recognizes the SMBus controller.

Note
  • SMBus is the System Management Bus used in personal computers and servers for low-speed, system management communications. A SMBus controller is integrated into most Intel® chipsets
  • This issue is generally seen on Intel NUC Products 6th Generation and earlier
