If you go for SCVMM (System Center Virtual Machine Manager, the
management tool of Hyper-V installs) you get a V2V tool to convert ESX
VMs to Hyper-V.
I believe the price on it is $1k US for an unlimited number of Hyper-V
hosts.

Alex: As I mentioned in a reply, upon rechecking the console, the file
was quarantined, not deleted. So better and not as onerous an issue. I
remember CA quarantining one of the Windows operating systems files on
our servers a few years back. That was fun.
Always room for improvement.
We have couple in our server rooms. Can't say they've been real helpful

Thanks, Ben -- yeah, same key but the KB says to look under the subkey
