#Requires -Version 5.1 <# JbTecWiz Support Centre -- read-only diagnostic Fault : Hyper-V: a VM will not start -- 0x80070569 or "failed to open attachment" Source: https://jbtecwiz.com/support/srv-hyperv-vm-start This script CHANGES NOTHING. It runs only the inspection commands from the write-up -- the Get-, Test- and Resolve- calls that establish which cause is in play -- and prints what each returned. Anything that writes, deletes, starts or stops is excluded by construction, not by judgement. Read the output alongside the write-up, then pick the fix that matches. Each fix has its own script on the same page. -------------------------------------------------------------------- NO WARRANTY - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK This script is provided by JbTecWiz as-is and with no warranty of any kind, express or implied.
