    @Anonymous Firstly, apologies for the delay in responding here and any inconvenience this issue may have caused.

    For better understanding: Are you using full snapshot or incremental snapshot? Can you please elaborate bit more on your query?

    If you are trying to get back vm after doing sysprep & capturing the VM, then it's possible, but taking snapshot of the OS disk, create new disk and create the VM.
    or if you have snapshot of VMs taken before and later you had used that VM for capturing VM image, then the snapshot can't be used to revert the VM back to working state as it VM is locked for any management operations.

    Hope this helps!

    Kindly let us know if the above helps or you need further assistance on this issue.
