Using a Chinese made NIC with Intel 82576 chip. Win 10 1909(Nov 2019) recognized it as Intel gigabit ET.
The Intel driver installation program blocked all non-intel NICs even with the one in the driver CD from this NIC package.
So there may be no way to use intel program to do teaming.
On the other hand, the way in the instruction on TechnoGecko which is using new-NetLBFOTeam is blocked by Microsoft in the recent released win 10 version last year, too.
A reddit user azwildfire shared another way to do teaming: using Powershell's New-NetSwitchteam command: link
I don't know when it will be blocked as new-NetLBFOTeam, but it works now on win 10 1909, maybe on newest 2004 too.

PaulVarghese in linustechtips.com introduced this way in Dec 2018. link
It was using "Microsoft Network Adapter Multiplexor Protocol" to team the NICs.

Code:

If you want to go with native features, In windows 10 you can now use
the Powershell Command New-NetSwitchteam (without having to install Hyper-V)
For example: New-NetSwitchTeam -Name "MyTeam1" -TeamMembers "Ethernet 2","Ethernet 3"
