What Happened?

I am Getting this Error when i run minikube start --driver=hyperv after restarting the computer .

First time when i installed minikube and and started the minikube
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V -All
i did this and i was able to use everything just fine.

❯ minikube status
minikube
type: Control Plane
host: Running
kubelet: Running
apiserver: Running
kubeconfig: Configured

But the next day when try to use the containers it was not working and was giving the error saying unable to connect.

❯ minikube status
minikube
type: Control Plane
host: Running
kubelet: Running
apiserver: Stopped
kubeconfig: Configured

then i deleted everything using minikube delete --all --purge

and tried start the minikube again
