Workstation 16.2.x failed to power on

After the third attempt of re-creating a new VM and taking snapshots along the way. I still have an issue where I can use the VM all day then power down, next day, Failed to Power on the message.  Restoring and trying the snapshots as I created the Vm does not work.

This has happened on Windows 10 21H1 and Windows 11

Have not attempted to downgrade VM WorkPro as of yet.  Seems a number of issues with 16.2.x are presented here.

Post a screenshot of your “failed to power on” message.

We can close this topic.  I reloaded it all.

But the screenshot would show the standard-default message of Failed to power on then pat to VM file.
