Hello everyone! I hope to be posting in the correct place, if not please tell me and I’ll delete this. I have a W11 VM on my EndeavourOS KDE laptop that I use because of some software I need for university that does not run under wine (LabVIEW and Keil uVision). The VM is running on virt-manager (QEMU KVM) using the virtio drivers, and it works really well (I mean, to be windows). The only problem is that today I run a windows update and… sbem, BSOD after reboot. The automatic diagnostic fails to do anything, uninstalling updates fails, of all possible recovery options the only one that does “something” is the command prompt, that I have 0 experience using. This was the first time updating since I created the VM a few weeks ago. Now my question is: is this fixable? Is there at least a way to recover my files, perhaps using the cmd? Thanks in advance to everyone!

    I don’t have any, I didn’t think it was necessary to just run 2 softwares… But I was wrong :(

    And also maybe some automatic ones on a schedule (daily/weekly)

    Don’t Windows do it automatically? I though it was more stable than this :/

    Or try booting the VM with a live boot environment of your favorite distro, similar to how you would do recovery from a dead physical machine.

    I’ll try this as soon as I can, thanks for the help! I’ll post here any news
