Hello,

there is a possibility to save and no longer having to reinsert tpm password at every boot of guest system?

Unfortunately, I am not a place where I can quickly and easily produce a screenshot, but if you look at the prompt closely, you should be offered a checkbox that, if checked, will save the credentials.  Check that box, and you shouldn't be prompted again.

Ah, I was confused / misremembered.  The prompt actually comes when you create the credentials.  :pensive_face:

In your situation, after-the-fact, I'm of little or no use.

I'm sorry.

And actually, I did not misremember!

This is what I get:

If it helps, I think moved the VM from an external drive to internal storage, and then got this the first time I tried to run it.
