Hello folks, I just tried to install the new drivers to a Windows Server 2022 VM and it wasn't successful and the installation rolled back automatically.
After that, Windows requested a reboot to fix some driver issues and when rebooted it ran chkdsk by itself.

It's a redundant machine so I don't mind having some downtime. Anyone experiencing something related with this driver version?
This post wasn't created to debug and solve the issue, but to warn e gather some information in finding out if this driver also affects other people.

Confirmed. Glad to see this thread. I have experienced the same. Neither an upgrade of an existing VM with previous install of virtio-win nor a fresh install of virtio-win-0.1.262 on a newly built Windows 11 VM succeeds.

Yes, you can install the drivers manually. Both during Windows setup and from within Windows. But if you're wanting all the drivers and services to be installed and functioning, the inability of the MSI-based installer to install everything is a bit of an issue.
