raptorddd Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 am new to virtual machine. so am trying to run a game that fails on windows 10 it crashes . so am installing XP on huper-v but i have read that to copy files to virtual macbhine i can mount virtual then unmount. i did this but the next time i start VM it gives error, i have already uninstalled hyper-v. i just cant get files to copy. already did some research but the other ways were too complex for me. dell precision m4600 i7 2760QM 8GB ram MX500 crucial SSD 500GB. win 10 21H2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i.bakar Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 im not sure if i understand your question correctly but if you are aiming to just copy files between the host machine and the vertual machine, using hyper-v then here is a link shows how . ( i never used hyper-v before ) but if u are interested to use another software for your virtual windows then here is the one i usualy use ( virtualbox) software and here is the link for how to do drag and drop 1 Alienware M18X R1, i7 2960XM @ 4.4Ghz, Nvidia GTX 880M SLI , 32GB RAM , samsung 840pro + samsung 860evo ( THE BEST I EVER HAVE) Alienware Area-51M R1, i9 9900K @ 5.1Ghz, Nvidia RTX 2080, 64GB RAM, samsung 980 Pro( LOVELY MACHINE WITH BAD BIOS ) Alienware 18 , I7 4930MX @ 4.2Ghz , GTX 980M SLI, 32GB RAM ( MAY REST IN PEACE) (CAME BACK TO LIFE) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron44126 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 You should be able to just copy/paste files between host and VM as well (while the VM is running). I've done it with both Hyper-V and VMware Workstation.

Aaron44126 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 ...You can also just copy files via network share like you would with any other two PCs on the same LAN. 1 Dell Precision 7770 (personal) • Dell Precision 7560 (work) • Full specs in spoiler block below Info posts (Dell) — Dell Precision key posts • Dell driver RSS feeds • Dell Fan Management — override fan behavior Info posts (Windows) — Turbo boost toggle • The problem with Windows 11 • About Windows 10 LTSC Spoiler Dell Precision 7770 (personal) Intel Core i9-12950HX ("Alder Lake"), 8P+8E 8× P cores ("Golden Cove"): 2.3 GHz base, 5.0 GHz turbo, hyperthreading 8× E cores ("Gracemont"): 1.7 GHz base, 3.6 GHz turbo 128GB DDR5-3600 (CAMM) NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 16GB (DGFF) Storage: 2TB system drive: Samsung 980 Pro, PCIe4 24TB additional storage: MDRAID, RAID 0 2× 8TB Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus, PCIe4 1× 8TB Inland Performance Plus, PCIe4 Kubuntu 23.04 (KDE Plasma 5.27, Linux kernel 6.2) 17.3" 3940×2160 120 Hz display Intel Wi-Fi AX211 (Wi-Fi 6E + Bluetooth) 93Wh battery IR webcam Fingerprint reader Dell Precision 7560 (work) Intel Xeon W-11955M ("Tiger Lake") 8×2.6 GHz base, 5.0 GHz turbo, hyperthreading ("Willow Cove") 64GB DDR4-3200 ECC NVIDIA RTX A2000 4GB Storage: 512GB system drive (Micron 2300) 4TB additional storage (Sabrent Rocket Q4) Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021 15.6" 3940×2160 display Intel Wi-Fi AX210 (Wi-Fi 6E + Bluetooth) 95Wh battery IR webcam Fingerprint reader Previous Dell Precision 7530, 7510, M4800, M6700 Dell Latitude E6520 Dell Inspiron 1720, 5150 Dell Latitude CPi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raptorddd Posted August 13, 2022 Author Share Posted August 13, 2022 i give up. every time i mount the drive and copy files next time it doesnt start i get error Failed to Power on with “The chain of virtual hard disks is corrupted. There is a mismatch in the identifiers of the parent virtual hard disk and differencing disk”. tried this but show other error This is an issue with the checkpoint file and the main VHDX file. Sometimes this is caused by having checkpoints on other locations or in my case I mounted the VHDX file in the operating system and then the link between the VHDX and AVHDX file had been broken. Fortunately, there is an easy fix using the Set-VHD PowerShell command: Set-VHD “D:\VM\maindisk.avhdx” – PartentPath “D:\VM\maindisk.vhdx” You may get back an error “There exists ID mismatch between the differencing virtual hard disk and the parent disk.” If you get that you can use -ignoreidmismatch flag Set-VHD “D:\VM\maindisk.avhdx” – PartentPath “D:\VM\maindisk.vhdx” -ignoreidmismatch gave up and deleted VM. dell precision m4600 i7 2760QM 8GB ram MX500 crucial SSD 500GB. win 10 21H2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
