[McIDAS #DZN-645110]: McIDAS, CentOS, solid-state drive and Windows 10

Hi Kwan,

I have never run into a situation like this.

re:

> Windows?

Have you tried Googling:

- stopping the VM being stuck in an endless loop

- how to retrieve files from VM files

I have never been in a position to investigate these issues,
but I suspect that if either is possible, it would be challenging.

re:

And?  Again, I have never been in this position, so I have no usable
advice for you, sorry.

Cheers,

Tom
