+This article provides a comprehensive guide to troubleshooting common issues encountered with Hyper-V virtual machine (VM) backup, checkpoint management, and storage failures in Windows Server environments (Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2022, and Windows Server 2025). These issues often arise during backup or restore operations, checkpoint creation or merging, VM startup, and storage connectivity. They can impact both production and disaster recovery workflows in standalone Hyper-V hosts, clustered setups, and environments integrated with third-party backup tools. Timely identifying and resolving these issues is critical to maintaining VM availability, data integrity, and backup reliability.
