  • After the Windows Server 2022 update KB5022842 (OS Build 20348.1547) has been installed, virtual machines running on vSphere ESXi 6.7 U2/U3 or vSphere ESXi 7.0.x that have secure boot enabled may experience difficulty in booting up the guest operating system.

    Now the VM was not boot we don't have backup of VM also, what we did is download the vmdisk files and vm.vmx file to a local server and install the VMware Workstation Pro 17 from vmware site.

    install it  in local server connected the vmx file to it.


    we power on the VM, It automatically cleanup the windows update patches in the Virtual Machine. we disable the services of windows update and rename the software distribution folder file in the windows folder

     

    Now our VM was up and Running the trick works for me try it if you have any issue with Windows server 2022 VM.  ,


    To disable Secure Boot on Virtual Machines (VMs), follow the steps below:

    1. Open the VM Settings window.

    2. Select the "Security" tab.

    3. Uncheck the box labeled "Enable Secure Boot".

    4. Click "OK" to save the changes.
