Hi, we restored windows 10 (sysprep) from the clonezilla backup to the proxmox virtual machine. Windows is loaded only once, after shutdown it does not start. The choice of an efi file in the BIOS of a virtual machine does not help. Everything works on a oracle virtual box and kvm+qemu. Tell me what can be done?
 
Can you show the config file of the VM? qm config <VMID>.
How did you configure the VM with kvm+qemu?

Was the VM initially booting in UEFI or BIOS mode?
 
Now I restore this machine to my working computer with kvm+qemu (it works fine after shutdown), then copy the disk file to the proxmox, add it to the virtual machine, the first time it starts, after shutdown it does not boot. Everything is exactly the same.

Can you show the config file of the VM?

boot: d

ide2: none,media=cdrom

Have a look at the boot order. You can find it in the Options panel of the VM. Looks like you configured it to boot only from CDs.
 
It doesn't work either:

bios: ovmf
boot: cd
bootdisk: sata0
cores: 2
cpu: Broadwell
ide2: none,media=cdrom
machine: q35
memory: 2048
name: test-testbench
net0: e1000=16:3D:5E:62:05:4A,bridge=vmbr0,firewall=1
numa: 0
ostype: win10
sata0: tmp-local:9006/vm-9006-disk-0.raw,size=30G
sata1: tmp-local:9006/vm-9006-disk-1.qcow2,size=128K
scsihw: virtio-scsi-pci
smbios1: uuid=4db2f701-3b36-47c3-b3d0-c88c659e961c

This problem is related to Windows 10 Enterprice 2016 LTSB. On later versions of windows everything works.
 
Proxmox has problem with start Windows 10 Enterprice 2016 LTSB. Maybe with other versions of windows 10 of the same period too.
