Very Slow Boot of Windows from Boot Camp

What could be the causes for extremely slow booting of a windows VM running from Boot Camp? It keeps getting slower. It now takes 45 minutes to boot!! It runs fine once it finally opens though.

I am running Fusion 8 on a MacBook Pro that is running El Capitan. I have plenty of RAM, CPU and hard drive for this to utilize. The virtual machine is running using my Boot Camp installation and is running Windows 10 64-bit. Whenever I boot directly into Boot Camp in boots in just seconds so it isn't a problem with the Windows installation.

Got this fixed by reinstalling the boot camp connected virtual machine.
