Description

I confirm this bug has not already been reported

  • I have searched the issues and this bug has not been reported previously

Describe the bug
Creating a Windows 10 or 11 VM creates a configuration file which misses the necessary tpm="on" and secureboot="off" settings as described in the documentation.

This results in the VM booting up properly to the first part of installing Windows, but gets stuck during one of the reboots and never finishes the installation.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Run quickget windows 11
  2. Run quickemu --vm windows-11.conf

Expected behavior
VM should properly install and boot up afterwards.

Quickemu output
Run quickemu or quickemu and include the output of the failure below:

           If you are unable to run macOS or Windows VMs then run the above 👆                                                                                                                                                                              
           This will enable ignoring of unhandled MSRs until you reboot the host.                                                                                                                                                                           
           You can make this change permanent by running: 'quickemu --ignore-msrs-always'
