Windows 10 VM unreliable. Working and then not working, without changing any config.

Hello. I lost so many days trying to make the Win VM 11 work using the latest next unRAID. I gave up when I lost access to the server.

I installed everything fresh using the latest stable version and installing Windows 10 instead of the 11 so could be the most stable possible.

I installed the windows 10 VM everything was fine. I turned the server on today and the VM doesn't work anymore. I didn't change anything.

I want a windows 10 vm for gaming and to work as a normal PC. Have to be reliable. Can't be like this.

I hope I get this worked out or else I will have to leave unRAID. I have already paid for the Pro version though 😞

I want the most reliable windows VM possible. So I can use it for everyday PC and for gaming.

Thank you very much.
