    Windows 10 VM image to physical host machine


    I have a copy of windows 10 pro on my host machine. I'm planning on getting a larger hard drive for my PC and I'm taking this opportunity to do a fresh install of windows 10. My plan is to run a copy of windows 10 pro in a VM and set it up the way I want with the programs and such already setup and then make a system image in the VM to install on my host machine as the main OS after the hard drive is installed. What I want to know is if i can make this work without activating the VM copy of windows (I only have one personal use key already on my machine)? and if it does work if it will activate on my machine with no problems after I get everything up and running?

    :)

    Physical Machine not connected to Hyper-V systems

    If this is a physical machine that is NOT the host then that physical machine will need to be on the same subnet of your VMs in order to be able to communicate with it.

    Physical Machine Restore Image (Win 8.1) to New VM (on Win 10)

    Hello everyone,

    I made a Windows Image Backup of Windows 8.1 Pro on 7/29/15 before doing a clean install of Windows 10 Pro. Win 10 is up and running. I got Hyper-V running. i want to now have my old working everything installed version of Windows 8.1 pro running in a VM
    on the Win 10 machine.

    I cannot seem to restore the backup image.

    I have gotten close and it has taken forever to get there.

    I tried installing a new Win 8.1 Pro VM and then restoring the image: Failed.

    I tried an empty new VM with an empty drive, boot to 8.1 pro iso and then recover: Failed.

    I get this a long error that ends with (0x80042412).

    any suggestions?

    Thanks.

    Patrick Brewer

    Windows 10 VM image to physical host machine

    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
