Re: windows 10 - all previous VMs work - error adding a new
This problem has already been reported: the only way to attach an ISO to a VM (v5.0.0 on Win10 host) is to use the settings|Storage dialog before the VM starts. There are unconfirmed reports that not all ISO variants are affected, but so far nobody has responded to requests to pin it down.
