Hi Steve,
Thanks for the logs.
I can see that the installer tried to install the drivers\agents, installed balloon, qemufwcfg succesfully but couldn't find a device for the drivers:
netkvm: No matching devices found in INF "C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\netkvm.inf_amd64_c316d81195f48726\netkvm.inf" on the Machine.

First of all, I will open a bug to add better error messages to help debug does issues.
Second, it is weird for me that you are able to install the drivers manually with the INF file, are you sure they got installed?
notice that the fact that you are able to right-click on an INF file, install it, and get "The operation completed successfully" message doesn't mean that the driver got installed.
So to follow up and debug that issue, because I can't reproduce on my env, can you do the following on a fresh windows VM with no drivers:
1. open up a powershell prompt and run:
driverquery.exe /V /FO list > list_no_drivers.txt
2. on the CD go to a driver that is not installed folder (make sure that it is not installed by mistake of the output of the previous command), like vioserial, find the correct folder, and install the driver, then run:
driverquery.exe /V /FO list > list_no_drivers2.txt
and check to see if the driver got installed.
3. get devcon.exe and run:
devcon.exe hwids * > hw_ids.txt
please send me the 3 files to have a look.
Adding virtio-win and
@Vadim Rozenfeld , Do you know what can be the cause of the drivers not finding matching devices?
