Hi Vadim, I see that the bug status has changed to 'MODIFIED', but the corresponding package cannot be found. Can you provide an rpm package? Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately the virtio-win installer build failed due to the build VM problems https://brewweb.engineering.redhat.com/brew/taskinfo?taskID=39383502 I will update the bug with the relevant build information as soon as the problem has been resolved. Best regards, Vadim.
please give a try to installer from 1.9.18.1 virtio-win rpm which is available at http://brew-task-repos.usersys.redhat.com/repos/official/virtio-win/1.9.18/1.el8/noarch/ thanks, Vadim.
Tested this case with virtio-win-1.9.18.iso and it works as expected. When I wanted to remove "virtio-win-driver-installer", I received a warning message.
Test installer related cases with virtio-win-1.9.18-1.el8.iso, found gagent version is not right, expected is 102.7.0 but got 102.0.3.

No warning message when upgrade installer from previous, we need that warning for upgrade as well.

Hi Vadim, Now this warning message can only be seen through msi, not through exe, but customer uses exe. Do you have any comments about that?
Based on comment35,filed a new bz2005220,and set this bz to VERIFIED.Thanks!
