Reopen it according to comment5 I still have doubts that we need to force a system reboot after successful device drivers installation or update action. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/install/device-installations-and-system-restarts However, living it to Martin and Amnon to comment on this issue. The problem mentioned at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1847856#c5 needs to be investigated as a separate issue. Best regards, Vadim After evaluating this issue, there are no plans to address it further or fix it in an upcoming release. Therefore, it is being closed. If plans change such that this issue will be fixed in an upcoming release, then the bug can be reopened. |

Actual results: There is no hint to reboot the machine, install log is in attachment. Expected results: Better to ask for a reboot after install/uninstall.
