My HyperV VM fails to start since it cannot find its avhdx file; which should be merged AFAIK.
How do I get HyperV(?) to understand that the avhdx file has been merged?
I had a virtual machine Foss06 with 2 files. Foss06.vhdx
and Foss06_A1EBE5BC-A1E2-4169-B799-E3AAAA9B73D0.avhdx
I merged the avhdx file through the HyperV GUI. (instructions)
Now I cannot start Foss06 any more but instead get a
