(Looking through the setupapi.offline.log file [and the
DriverStore\FileRepository\ driectory in general], it seems like the
part of this name before the "_amd64" is taken from the name of the .inf
file originally used in the installation process -- and that the usual
convention is have a driver-specific name for the file, e.g.
"geminilakesystem.inf" or "cannonlake-lpsystemthermal.inf" .
I don't know that changing the name would directly have made any difference
in our case, but as long as you are looking at changing the generation
of the .inf files, I wondered if it would make sense for the TAP-Windows
installer to use a more descriptive name than "oemvista.inf"...?)
