This is the 3rd 10th gen HP I've been annoyed with Windows not seeing the drive, and this fixed it. I installed it, found F6 folder and inside was VMD and two drivers just like yours, after it loaded the drive magically appeared, thanks so much ITM!

My drive is non RAID. I can get to the point of clicking the f6 folder, however I find alot of drivers, of which the VMD controller is absent. the type of my chipset is NvMe

Just select the f6 folder and click ok.
Check the hide drives that aren't compatible box as well.
