AMD adds that the driver has a few known issues, some of which could be fixed with workarounds:

• After installing the AMD Chipset Installer version “7.xx.xx.xx”, users cannot install version “6.xx.xx.xx” or earlier. Workaround:
  • Uninstall the latest version of the AMD Chipset installer (version 7.xx.xx.xx or later).
  • Delete the “Qt_Dependencies” folder located at "C:\Program Files (x86)\AMD\Chipset_Software\".
  • Install any older version of the AMD Chipset installer (version 6.xx.xx.xx or earlier).
• On a non-English OS, some driver names may appear in English. 
• Yellow bang on the AMS Mailbox driver on the AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ 9000 Series Processors [AMD WRX90] on Win10 OS.

You can download the latest AMD Ryzen chipset drivers for Windows 10 and 11 from the official support article. Full release notes are available on the same page. The driver is available on 64-bit Windows 10 and 11 systems with mobile and desktop Ryzen, Threadripper, and 7th-gen A-Series processors.
