Hello,

I tried the same thing on Windows Server 2022 and WDS with the same failed package result:

This Realtek driver from HP https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp111001-111500/sp111219.exe for a HP ProDesk 400 G5 Small Form Factor PC.

The package is shown as signed

I tried the same thing with a Lenovo Realtek Ethernet driver from here:
https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds556582-realtek-ethernet-driver-for-windows-11-64-bit-version-21h2-or-later-ideacentre-gaming5-17acn7

and got the same error.

Any assistance would be great.
