Hi, actually I reinstalled it twice since passthrough is working. The first time, because I destroyed the VM too often, when Windows was already booting and passthrough was not working yet.
The second time because I switched from the sata interface to virtio for iothread performance reasons and Windows did not manage to install a goddamn io controller driver from the recovery, although I could install it for the recovery tools. The boot issues fixer did not get the idea, that the io controller driver available for it could be worthwhile to install into the main system. Windows sucks, but yeah, that’s the reason, why you can only use it for gaming and not productivity.
