Issues migrating a VM that uses TPM.

[bobbintb]

For some background on my issue, I'm working out some USB controller issues on my motherboard that will sometimes screw up my unRAID flash drive. The other day my config folder turned into a file (yeah, weird, I know) so I had to restore from a backup. Unfortunately, the most recent USB backup was about 8 months old. I should know better but this USB thing has been a LONG existing frustration and I got discombobulated between all the hair pulling and thought it was working.

Anyway, I am trying to restore my VM but Windows keeps crashing with an error about the bios. I assume it is related to TPM. I have Windows 11 and an NVMe drive passed through. I don't think the template/XML is the issue as I am very capable as far as that goes. I'm not as familiar with the other aspects of how it works. I know there is a file for TPM but I don't know where it is and it's probably lost if it was in the config folder. I think there is also some sort of NVMe cache or metadata file. So apart from the XML file, what is needed to get this working?

TLDR: My stupid USB controller borked the config folder on my USB, Windows 11 is giving me a BSOD about the BIOS, so apart from the VM XML template, what else do I need to restore to fix the TPM and whatever else is causing the issue?
