VERR_NOT_SUPPORTED

Post by tr888 »

I used the New option in the UI for VirtualBox 5.2.2r119230 and chose "use an existing virtual hard disk file" option.

It is a Windows 7 x64 system and I allocated 8192MB RAM to it (on a Windows 10 system with 32GB RAM).

I pointed to FOO.vhdx which was created using Disk2vhd v2.01 at sysinternals.com

FOO.vhdx included the "System Reserved" partition of 100MB as well as my main C: drive partition. In total it was 264GB.

I am getting the error VERR_NOT_SUPPORTED.
Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component: Medium Wrap
Interface: IMedium
Callee: IVirtualBox
Callee RC: VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND

Is the fact that the VHDX contains the "System Reserved" partition the cause of this problem? Should I recreate the VHD without it?

Nope, that's not it. See the discussion from last July: Add VHDX support. A quick and dirty search for "VirtualBox VHDX" shows it as the first result in my search. Maybe you need to switch search engines? ;)

If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.
