  1. "Connecting to virtual disk service " longs forever


    In the disk management, it shows a blank window saying "connecting to virtual disk service " and stucks in it. When I go to services and then try to start virtual disk manually or automatically it says "starting" and never starts. Please help me. I'm trying to allocate my new nvme ssd which is not showing in 'this pc' section. I don't even know whether the ssd is supported or not.

    :)
