Can't get any of my Windows 10 VMs to start , just getting a QEMU exited with error 1 .
Only Windows 10 VMs will not start Windows 11 and Linux start o.k .
It doesn't look to be a EFI disk problem , because it's affecting seabois and uefi machines .
I'll looked in the logs and can't see a problem in syslog .
Where do a look for what's going wrong ?
 
Please provide the output of pveversion -v and the VM config qm config <VMID> of such a VM.

Thank you , I think I've found my error.
I did a update / reset and complete deleted all the windows 10 VMs which wouldn't start , and reinstalled them from backups and THINK I found why they did not start . ( human error )
I tried the first VMs and that still didn't start ,so looked at the hardware configs and found it was connected to a bridge I had deleted , but you would think you get more feed back from the logs than QEMU error 1 ?
 
Well, in such a case you do get the complete command line used to start the VM, with possibly a more useful error.
You would have to look at the complete task log though.
