Reports say uninstalling Windows update KB3045999 may fix your error; that update did not change ntdll.dll correctly.

I ran across this forum post with the exact same issue..
I can confirm removing this update fixed my issues and the vm's are booting fine again.


Seems to have been some very flakey updates in the last few batches.

There were two others affecting Microsoft Office users. I don't use Windows normally but it seems Seattle can't release updates without problems lately.

Please could you try the latest Windows test build (>= r100091? It contains a fix which should allow you to install the Microsoft hotfix which is highly recommended as they contain important security fixes. Thank you!
