Hi there!

I have a VM which runs fine the last 6 months.
It is a Windows 2016 Standard VM and today I got a Bluescreen. So I wanted to restart the VM and nothing happend.

It tries to boot and ends up in an EFI shell. I know that I can go into the BIOS und set a file to boot from. So I tried that.

But there is no Harddrive where I can select the file.
In the configuration of the VM the EFI is set correct and the EFI disk is available. But still I have a blank screen and can not select the file.

If you need some output please let me know!
Thanks!

can you post your vm config file?

from server shell
cat /etc/pve/qemu-server/xxx.conf
(where xxx is VM id)
