In order to manually install the drivers you can go into device manager (start menu–> type “device manager” in the search box) then find the USB 3.0 card and double click, then select the drivers tab and from there you can choose update driver and then select the unzipped driver package you downloaded. Without a proper USB 3.0 driver, the operating system would not be able to send and receive data correctly to the hardware device attached to a computer.

There are too many changes in all of the files needed by the driver between the two kernel versions. The AKE express card is not a Plugable product, but I believe it does use the NEC/Renesas chipset, so it should use the same driver package.
