Hi friend,
I am trying to install VM using an iso instead of PXE, after trying setting the boot priority also and trying ide/sata controller for CD/DVD writer in proxmox i am still unable to make the iso boot without pressing any key on the proxmox screen.

attached is the screenshot of the same.

Note: ISO is totally fine

Pve Version 7.2-7

What do you mean with?:
i am still unable to make the iso boot without pressing any key on the proxmox screen.

So if you press any key, the ISO boots as expected?

My first thought was: Try disabling secure boot in the VM's UEFI. But the above makes me wonder...

yes if i press any key it will boot properly.
I am trying to automate the window iso boot but if i have to do manually disable secure boot it dissolve the purpose.
Edit: secure boot was disabled without doing any changes.

I assume it is a feature of the ISO. It supported two types of boot and only one requires a key press. Maybe ask the creator of the ISO? Or try this on a physical machine (by burning a disc)?
