Hi Ciro!

If I understand correctly you have a Windows server with EFI and C partition and want to do an entire machine backup, then restore this backup to a Hyper-V VM which failed.

Please share the activity log for this failed task to see what's wrong

Hello Ciro,

welcome to Acronis forums!

You've shared activity for deleting VM that you run from a backup. Please share with us log activity for restoring a backup to a Hyper-V VM.

 i read that Acronis can convert efi fisical to uefi virtual.. it's real?
