Symptoms
When you add new drivers to a driver package by using the Import New Driver wizard, the driver package files are larger than you expect.
The content for the driver package may be duplicated multiple times. This causes the package file to be significantly larger than the package in the original source location.
Additionally, the process to import the new drivers by using the Import New Driver wizard may take much more time than you expect.
