June 20, 20206 yr Is it worth updating current VMs with the latest VirtIO Drivers? What if any benefits are there? My primary Win 10 VM is using virtio-win-0.1.141-1. How do you go about updating if you want to?
June 20, 20206 yr Not really. You have to download the new ones in the settings page for vm’s and then add them as a cd disc for the vm to see and you can update each appropriate driver. I only bother if I am experiencing a specific issue I want to resolve.

I only bother if I am experiencing a specific issue I want to resolve. You can also download it straight into the VM and extract the drivers from there. That avoids any messing around with the VM settings. That being said, if everything is working properly there usually isn't much reason to update the drivers.
