Title

The system cannot find the file specified: [V:\Hyper-V\Virtual Hard Disks\Server
Description

Protecting a Hyper-V VM agentless fails with the error below.
Cause

This happens when the character "#" is used in the vhd/x file name causing the truncation of the name when the metadata is being requested.
Resolution

Shut down the VM and rename the VHD/X file directly to its folder in the Hyper-V host, then, power on back and try again the protection agentless from the Rapid Recovery console.
