Hyper V Server Error - An attempt to initialize VM saved state failed

When I was working with my Hyper V Server creating a new virtual machine, I encountered this error message saying that the "operation has failed, general access denied error. 0x80070005"




So basically, I already had a clue by just looking the error message that this has something to do with the NTFS permissions. So here's what I did to solve this.

1. Go to the root drive and go to the NTFS Permissions tab


 2. Now, click "Edit" and click "Add". We're going to add a user here in order to fix the issue.
3. Then add in the "Authenticated Users" group and make sure that it has the "List folder contents & read" permission. Then click "Apply" and "OK" for the changes to take effect.





















4. Then go back to your Hyper V console and try creating a new virtual machine again and see your VM live in action.

VM for Windows Server 2008 R2
VM for Windows Server 2012

Still having problems creating VMs on your Hyper V server? Leave a comment and I'll get back at you. :)

    1. In My care, We had A hyper v VM with 2 snapshot, which were deleted from console but not removed from the original location due to VM machine not shut down. So to merge the snapshots I have shutdown the VM and found that merging of snapshot repeating again and again. If I try to start the VM then getting error that "VM name" An attempt to initialize VM saved state failed and "VM Name" failed to create or access saved state fail. Search the solution in many articles but no use.


      Finally the solution is the VM Snapshots size one is 23GB & one is 26GB but the drive hosting the VM and snapshots having a 0% free space. So I managed to make some free space and the problem got resolved. I can see that merge is finished and I can able to start my VM and its working perfectly.


      Note: make sure that you have sufficient free space in the drive which is hosting your VM & snapshots (At least 40% of VM+ Snapshot size).
