Just created a Windows 11 VM on a single Intel NUC PVE.
Installed the latest VirtIO drivers and everything seems to be OK except for this one error in the Windows Device Manager:

QEMU FwGfg Device: This device cannot start. (Code 10) Bad data.

Did I miss something or did something wrong? Any idea how to fix it?

I got the same situation. I installed from an English language version Win11 22H2 changeing language pack to German.
Got the problem with p35 versions 6.1 and 7.2 (others not tested yet). virtio-gt version 0.1.229.
