What exactly does the option "Activate Windows Repair Mode"?

[m.fessler]

Hello,

does anyone know, what the "Activate Windows Repair Mode" option does exactly?
Is only the recovery option activated during the first boot process or is more done (generalized...?) here?

And then another probably stupid question:
With "P2V/Entire Machine" the target "Local file" is not possible - because probably "Entire Machine" would include the target.
But "P2V/Physical Disk" works and is then basically identical to "Entire Machine minus local target" - right?

Thanks and regards,
Martin

Greetings,

The StarWind V2V Converter / P2V Migrator simplifies the process of migrating VMs and virtual disks between distinct hardware configurations. It achieves this by initiating the migrated VM in Windows Repair Mode. Moreover, this tool facilitates the transformation of a physical machine into a virtual one. In either scenario, the VM seamlessly adjusts to the fresh hardware environment, eliminating any potential compatibility issues.

You still can P2V the entire machine https://www.starwindsoftware.com/v2v-he ... chine.html.
