      What were you trying to do that didn't work?
      I did some sanity tests on the old windows version as below, win10-1903,32bit and 64bit hit the failure that some virtio drivers couldn't be updated by installer.
      Windows 10, version 1903 - fail
      Windows 11, version 21H2 - pass
      Windows 11, version 22H2 - fail
      Windows 11, version 23H2 - pass

      virtio-win-1.9.45-0.el10_0.iso

      2.Reboot os.
      3.Install the installer.exe bundle from virtio-win-1.9.44-0.el10.iso
      4.(Update the drivers)Install the installer.exe bundle from virtio-win-1.9.45-0.el10_0.iso

      Expected results
      All drivers could be installed.

      Actual results
      Some drivers couldn't be updated by the latest installer.
      Setupapi log was updated.

       

      Other info:

      Trying to update from virtio-win-1.9.43-0.el9_5.iso to virtio-win-1.9.44-0.el10.iso in the same host and OS, didn't hit it. So setting it to a regression issue.
