I try to Create Virtual Machine on Hyper-V Success. But, When I Start Virtual Machnine Always error below

For solve this issue, edit VMWare Guest Hyper-V and Add, Use WinSCP for help you edit *.vmx

hypervisor.cpuid.v0 = “FALSE“
mce.enable = “TRUE”
vhv.enable = “TRUE”

CMIIW, Thanks

2. Type chkdsk c: /r and press Enter.
   Note: If the local disk being scanned is not c: , replace c: with its drive letter.

Note: A scan of the system drive requires that the operating system be rebooted.

Reason:

Host OS might have shutdown unexpectedly causing a running Virtual Machine to die without saving its state.

fix:
1. Go to the virtual machines directory, where VM files are stored on host OS.
3. Check for lock (.lck) folder inside ussually has vmdk.lck, vmem.lck, vmx.lck extensions.

4. Delete the .lck (backup before you delete)

5. After delete, Try to Power On Virtual Machine again
