Agree. Would be nice to have it documented. or perhaps even a version check on Windows each run so that upon a new version a little "ding" message like so:
VMSynth detects new Window version. If midi is not functional in any way please re-install.
A re-install over_the_top is superior to the jazz of uninstall/reboot/re-install/reboot etc.

I just uninstalled, rebooted, and installed VirtualMIDISynth 2.2.1 and still it doesn't show up in Synthesia as an output device. Tried to install the MIDIMapper as well, didn't help. Checked the regedit for the keys specified in this thread, and VirtualMIDI entries are there.
Running Windows 10 Home, Version 10.0.16299 Build 16299

This is a known issue of latest Synthesia versions, checkout this thread for further details: https://coolsoft.altervista.org/en/forum/thread/581

Thanks, that pointed me in the right direction. There some hidden settings in Synthesia if you hold your Shift key while launching it. And in this hidden settings so is there one called "Midi.UseWinRTMidi" which I disabled, and Virtual Midi is once again available in Synthesia 10.4.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I think it would be a good idea to make VirtualMidiSynth restore the registry entries if they're not found on startup. The constant windows 10 updates are making me have to re-install this nearly every second week, sometimes more.

Just released version 2.7.0.
It adds a new feature that will check driver installation at startup and allows the user to fix it if needed.
New version can be found here.
