I have the same, or similar, issue. It is not expected and showed up around the 9419 build release. Currently have no ETA of a fix.

Subject: [WiX-users] Win8.1 + DIFx problem... I have a device driver install which is working just fine. However, I'm getting different behavior on Win8.1 compared to the previous releases of Windows (Vista, Win7, Win8). On the previous releases of Windows, removing the MSI package from the Control Panel->Programs and Features results in the device driver being removed from the driver store. It also results in the replacement of the active drivers instances with the nul device driver. I don't know if this is default DIFx behavior or something that WiX is asking DIFx to do for me. On Win8.1, the driver package is removed from the driver store but the driver instances are not being changed in any way. Is this expected behavior? I'll do some digging and see if DIFx is installing the nul driver based on the DIFx action or if WiX is doing it just to be kind (and yes, it is kind of WiX).
