Microsoft replaced Virtual PC with Hyper-V for Windows 8. In Virtual PC I was able to shutdown the instance and lose changes form that session. This is important for testing that I can restart the VM in the original state.
When I perform either a shutdown or turnoff the VM in Hyper-V it saves the changes made while running. How do I setup a VM in Hyper-V to lose the changes on shutdown?
Well, do it different.
Ignrore shutdown. Use a snapshot to snapshot the known good state, then roll back. THis way you can also test thigns like installs and restart during them.
