Just to wrap up some a few loose ends: the 10,042-byte tap0901.cat file
from the DriverStore... directory _does_ seem to have the unwanted
"OpenVPN, Inc." signature:
=====

As I mentioned in the previous email, the
emvista.inf_amd64_6d4bec28a2ef0cdf has a timestamp which coincides with
the moment that the OpenVPN installer was being run.
However, I noticed that the oem43.inf file does have an earlier
timestamp:
=====
Directory of c:\windows\inf
03/26/2020 04:03 PM 7,537 oem43.inf
03/27/2020 11:09 AM 8,828 oem43.PNF
=====
... though weirdly Windows on that box was reinstalled in the _morning_ of
3/26, and 16:03 doesn't correspond to any entries at all in the
setupapi.dev.log file (which jumps from 2020/03/26 12:30:18 in one entry
to 2020/03/27 07:50:45 in the next). So it doesn't quite seem like
oem43.inf would have been created during the initial reinstall of
Windows, but I also don't know what would have created it later that
day...
The c:\windows\inf\oem43.inf file is identical to the one in C:\Program
Files\TAP-Windows\driver:
=====
$ sha1sum failed_windows-inf_oem43.inf failed_program-files_OemVista.inf
d85f4e65fe10f13ded1780ddbd074edfc75f2d25 failed_windows-inf_oem43.inf
d85f4e65fe10f13ded1780ddbd074edfc75f2d25 failed_program-files_OemVista.inf
=====
... but I suppose that might just indicate that the Win7 and Win10
versions of that file are identical (if in fact the \windows\inf\ copy
came from the Win7 drivers somehow).
