Disk volumes not seen for installed Windows OS


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

 

I have a Windows Server 2016 VM that's been running for quite some time. However, I'm having an issue and need to access some files outside of the OS. To do so, I've booted to a Windows install ISO over the VM and accessed a command prompt through the troubleshooting option. However, I can't find the system volume where Windows is installed.

 

I've done some googling and the only thing that I can come up with is that it may be related to VM drivers not loading at boot.

 

My questions are: Is there a way I can ensure that the VirtIO drivers are loading when I boot via a Windows ISO? And does anyone have any other idea why I possibly can't see the system volume that I'm looking for?
