Workstation 17.0.2 running on Widows 11 laptop
Behavior occurring when running a Windows 11 Pro vm
The Windows 11 vm has a single snapshot named snapshot 1. The vdmk file name is Windows11Pro-000001.vmdk. After the last Microsoft update the file name change spontaneously to Windows11Pro-000002.vmdk. The locked folder also changed from Windows11Pro-000001.vmdk.lck to Windows11Pro-000002.vmdk.lck.
Normally, if I create a second snapshot the file name will increment and both Windows11Pro-000001.vmdk and Windows11Pro-000002.vmdk will be there, but I have not seen it increment spontaneously on its own like this, replacing the original file.
After this occurred the vm began rebooting very slowly. I ended up reinstalling the vm.
Anyone seen this behavior and know why it is occurring?
Thanks,
mux
