Question

One of my vm avhdx file is corrupted and can't merge disk files, what should I do.

Answer 1

If one of your VM's avhdx files is corrupted and you can't merge disk files, you can try repairing the disk using the steps outlined in the Microsoft documentation on resolving Windows boot error 0xc0000098 on an Azure VM. Specifically, you can create a troubleshooting VM, attach the affected disk, repair the disk using the bootrec /fixboot and bootrec /fixmbr commands, and replace any corrupted files with copies from a working VM with the same OS and system update level. Once the disk is repaired, you can detach it from the troubleshooting VM and create a new VM from the OS disk.
