Hi
with at least 1 version of Windows 10 (build 16299), the 'xl restore' command does not overwrite the previously running HVM. The symptoms are:
1) the restore appears to rapidly complete after approx 50% of the time
2) files created after the save in the running HVM are present after the restore
3) the Windows system tries to recover.
I have tried restoring both with a shutdown of the Windows system or a destroy. In both cases the results are the same.
I have listed some relevant info below. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Peter
