Microsoft Confirms Windows 11 Driver Update Failures Are Harmless.

Windows 11 users have been experiencing driver update failures on some devices, particularly on Microsoft’s Surface devices, which are causing installation issues for a wide range of hardware drivers. These issues are accompanied by an error code ‘0x80070103’ which is not very informative, making it difficult for users to understand what has gone wrong.
Fortunately, Microsoft has officially stated that these driver update failures are not a cause for concern. The errors are affecting those on Windows 11 22H2 across several PCs. Windows Latest reported that Microsoft posted an official response to the problem, explaining that the issue “shouldn’t impact your general usage.”
The company further explained that the error code is appearing because the driver updates in question have already been installed. Therefore, the failures are simply a result of the system attempting to reinstall the same driver update, which is unnecessary and harmless.
This information is reassuring for Windows 11 users who have been experiencing these driver update failures. It means that users can continue to use their devices normally without any significant impact on their experience. However, Microsoft has not yet provided any solution to fix the error code or prevent it from occurring in the future.
In summary, while the driver update failures in Windows 11 have been an annoyance for some users, they are not a cause for concern, and Microsoft has confirmed that they should not impact the general usage of the affected devices.
