Hi Gareth, I don't have a Windows machine here to test this, but there's an article about converting OVF/OVA images for the use with Hyper-V at Microsoft Technet: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj158932.aspx
Additionally, this blog article seems to describe the process very well: https://www.rootusers.com/how-to-convert-an-ova-virtual-machine-to-vhd/ Cheers, Jochen On Sunday, 27 September 2015 13:45:37 UTC+2, Gareth Davies wrote: > > I see that this is marked as will not fix.
