I'm trying to install the latest Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, downloaded directly from Windows in a virtual machine. I've attached the latest VirtIO drivers. Windows is stating that no additional drivers were found after selecting the file in viostor/w10/amd64. I've also tried various other options without success. I've also downloaded both the Windows 10 ISO and the VirtIO ISO twice. Any ideas?
 
Which hard disk bus do you use? VirtIO SCSI or VirtIO Block?

If you use the recommended VirtIO SCSI, the drivers are in the folder: "vioscsi" and not "viostor".
 
I'm using VirtIO writeback on ZFS. I've tried both drivers in both of those folders without success. I wondered if it was an issue with the W10 FCU being so new.

Again, VirtIO SCSI or VirtIO block.

To be sure, please post the config of your VM:

> qm config VMID

Just to note, also make sure that your ISO is not corrupted. Other users reported similar issues, always the got a corrupt ISO.
 
I've downloaded both the Windows and the VirtIO ISO twice now. I'll try again.
