Don’t start your minikube virtual machine from Hyper-V

Testing Environment Information:

Starting minikube VM:

I decided to start my Minikube VM directly from Hyper-V without the use of “minikube start”

“

After this action, if you go to a command prompt and do a minikube status, you will see that everything is not running correctly.

I brought the VM down and I did this again using minikube start, then I did a minikube status again, you can see the difference.
