Windows 10: Scanner on VM guest

deleted not ready to post

:)

 

Hyper-V on Windows 10 version 1703 - VM's freeze for 2-3 minutes during each Turn Off, Shut Down, Pause, Reset, or Restart, whether initiated from Host or Guest

Do you have your VMs saving state when being shut down?

I know when I reboot my host, the guest VMs will write out to disk as that's the option I have set for them. This can delay a reboot/shutdown by a couple minutes when it happens.

I've never had that happen when shutting down just the guest VM in my setup, but just put it out there as something that could be happening in yours.

 

port win 10 on local vm

- Bought a refurbished machine with win 10 + digital entitlement (most probably after win 8 upgrade)

- Created a vm via vmware as "image" of the physical system

- The vm win10 guest seemed to have no activation problems on win10 host

Problems come when launching the vm on linux host (same physical machine): the win10 guest is not able to activate. Besides this causes a bunch of key/mouse etc.. driver unsolvable problems.

All this was pretty easy with pid oem licences (e.g. w7). How can that be solved, if it could?

Thanks for reading
