At first apologies for the delay in replying.

I have two questions that I'd really appreciate hearing answers to:

1. Does your installer install the same version of Lyx for Windows? The "About" info I see is the following:
LyX Version 2.3.0...

Yes, the installer was built using the official LyX release source code from ftp.lyx.org.

Qt Version (run-time): 5.10.1
Qt Version (compile-time): 5.10.1

This is not my installer. I built LyX using Qt 5.9.4. For good reasons. Upgrading to a new Qt version requires a lot of tests on different Windows PCs. In the past I often found some problems and thus decided to stay safe and only use long-term support Qt versions.
You find my installer here:
http://ftp.lyx.de/LyXWinInstaller/LyX2.3.0/
and here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/lyxwininstaller/files/LyXWinInstaller/2.3.0/

2. Will there be any problem using your installer after having used the installer on LyX site?

That could happen. I don't know the new installer the LyX team has released. I fear that this installer will have problems sooner or later with MiKTeX. If you have problems with MiKTeX, you can use my installer to repair this.
