    Welcome to the forums

    There is an explanation why this might happen.

    1.VM start after host restart:

    Look on the host configuration tab - Virtual Machine Startup/Shutdown

    See if this VM is selected to start when host start

    Disable this if you don't want it

    2. All changes on VM discarded after reboot

    Right click the VM and select edit setting

    Have a look at the Hard disk options, It might be set on Independent - nonpersistent

    Untick independent or select persistent
