Error: One morning my desktop PC came up with a following error while trying to access VMs on two remote Hyper-V servers: “Hyper-V encountered an error trying to access an object on computer ‘hostname’ because the object was not found. The object might have been deleted. Verify that the Virtual Machine Management service on the computer is running. If the service is running, try to perform the task again by using Run as Administrator.”
Fix: Run following command in Elevated PowerShell Window, it will recomplie Microsoft Object Format (MOF), which will fix the issue:
MOFCOMP %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsVirtualization.V2.mof
