2. VM Restore Issues

This issue has been inherited from the previous monthly updates in both KB4486563 and KB4486564.  If you have already restored or saved the VM, it may fail to restore successfully. The company has also suggested a temporary workaround for the bug. After you have installed the update, you need to shut down the virtual machines just before restarting the host. Microsoft promised to provide a permanent fix to the bug to be available by mid-February 2019, but the patch has not been released as of now.  — RELATED: Patch Tuesday updates install Candy Crush on Windows 10 PCs
