On the off chance the dev reads this, I got an idea for the next SDIO update

Basically, I got this update for my "Realtek PCIE CardReader Extension Component", and everytime I install this update and restart, this update continues to show on SDIO, no matter which edition of SDIO I use

So maybe a feature to select any drivers that show on our list, and either add it to an "ignore this update only" list so only future versions show on SDIO when we update the drive indexes, or another list which hides it completely from any SDIO updates so it never shows. I've had this update shown on SDIO for ages, and it never goes away no matter how many times I "update" it, so if I can hide it somehow, all the better, out of sight, out of mind

What settings do you have in Expert Mode and what is the message it displays with the suggested driver update in the main list?

It looks like you have an old Microsoft generic driver installed. It would seem the driver installation is failing. Perhaps you can switch on the console window when installing the Realtek driver and see if it displays an error.

Not 0B but rather 0 MB, apparently rounded 4.2K or so down. Only thing standing out to me from that log is the following with multiple occurences:
ERROR: file not found 'C:WINDOWSinfoem86.inf'
I 'think' the run otherwise seems okay but I'm no expert. Attached the file here for convenience.

i can see it failing at line 80 and 81. So the next thing to do is try installing it manually.

Check the item in the list and select "Extract to" on the left. Choose a temp folder somewhere and it will extract the files. Now go to that temp folder and drill down the "drivers" folder and find the RtsCrExt.inf file. Right click and Install.

Hopefully that will give you a meaningful error message.

Line 31 contained that error first. Perhaps more verbose logging could reveal something useful? Running the snappy executable from command line with the -failsafe paramater is supposed to skip reading that area.
Does the file actually exist and is readable? Regedit searching for that filename may help figure out if a copy is in a driverstore folder and what the file should have belonged to. Running the snappy executable from command line with the -failsafe paramater is supposed to skip reading that area.
