Windows 10: Hyper-V Quick Create Iso Location

Where does Hyper-V quick create put the iso file that it downloaded? I want to delete it or be able to use it for other applications.






Thanks,

Hyper-V Quick Create Problems

I cannot recommend the experience of using the Quick Create feature of the recent Windows 10 Hyper-V program. - at least for creating Windows 10 VMs.

While you can create a Hyper-V Windows 10 VM in 2 steps I have not found a way to specify the location of the VM at least initially. It will be created in the Docullments\Virtual Machines folder on your Onedrive. Then if you wanted to quicky upgrade from say the 16193 iso to the 16199 you will be attempting to sync potentially a very large disk image and hang your physical host as I did - requiring the file to be removed by unlocker after a reboot. My physical disk partition was 100% which mean the virtual drive was actually 25GB although Explorer pegged it at one-tenth that size.

I will probably try Quick Create on say a BSD or Linux VM sometime in the near future. But I will move it out of Onedrive - that's certain. But then again if I do that I may as well just create the VM normally.

 

Hyper-V new 'Quick Create' Ubuntu 18.04.01 LTS errors on boot

After enabling Hyper-V in Windows 10 Pro and following the 'Quick Create' type wizard in Hyper-V to create a Ubuntu 18.04.01 LTS virtual machine, Hyper-V encounters the following two errors when trying to boot this virtual machine.

This is following the completion of the 'Quick Create' wizard to establish the Hyper-V settings for this particular virtual machine.

When starting this virtual machine the window that this is occurring in displays the following two errors:

• Spectre V2: Spectre mitigation LFENCE not serializing, switching to generic retpoline.
• PCI: Fatal: No config space function found.

This results in the Ubuntu boot up failing and falling back to the Linux Grub menu.

I'm using Windows 10 Pro 64bit, version 1809 on a HP EliteBook 745 G5 notebook which uses an AMD Ryzen 5 2500u CPU.

Any help much appreciated.

 

Where is the Hyper V Manager, How to I start it ?

I am trying to setup an XP virtual Machine on Windows 10 Pro.

I followed the steps in Neil Peterson article of 5/9/2016.

System Requirements - done - ok

Install Hyper-V - done - ok

Create a Virtual Switch - skip

Create a Virtual Machine

Create a Virtual Machine with Hyper-V Manager

These steps walk through how to manually create a virtual machine and deploy an operating system to this virtual machine.

• 
  In Hyper-V Manager, click Action > New >
  Virtual Machine to bring up the New
  

Uhhhhhhhhh - this step obviously implies one knows

1) Where the Hyper-V Manager is

2) How to start the Hyper-V Manager

Isn't that odd ?
