Lse,

Your error suggests that your conversion to a virtual disk file is using the wrong format.  VHDX is compatible with UEFI boot mode computers only.  Your source file is probably from a Legacy BIOS boot mode computer therefore virtual disk creation needs to be done as a VHD file.

VHD and VHDX virtual disk files work best with Windows Hyper V virtual machine service and can be enabled on Enterprise, Pro, and Education editions of the Windows 10 OS.

Thank you very much for informing me

Hello Lse,

The choices are fixed and cannot be changed by the user:

So, for my hp Z440 workstation Windows 10 Pro(was Windows 8.1 pro), which given the error, in the starting thread above, initial thread,…

is it vhdx have gotten any usable, given this error?

what are the possible solutions?

The solutions are to either use the Windows Hyper V Manager setup as a Gen 2 to run the VHDX or you can use a conversion tool to convert the VHDX file yet again into a VHD. 

If you wish to convert into a VHD Starwind V2V Converter is a good tool for that purpose

Can use in this PC itself the Windows Hyper V Manager setup as a Gen 2 to run its VM vhdx of itself…?

use the Windows Hyper V Manager setup as a Gen 2,… “Gen 2” means 2nd edition?

what are the system requirements for gen 2…?

 

Yes you can use this PC itself to run the Hyper V Manager set up as Gen 2. to run a vhdx of itself

The Gen 2 of Hyper V  is used to run UEFI booted image files (VHDX) whereas the Gen 1 of Hyper V is used to run Legacy BIOS booted image files (VHD)

Thank you for the Advice and Support

files.vhd and files.vhdx, can also used with Virtual Box, VMware Workstation Pro in Windows 10, and also on the macOS 11.y with Virtual Box and VMware Fusion Pro, hypervisors…?

You would need to check with the VM manufacturers about this or ask elsewhere as I am not familiar with those applications.
