File system specific implementation of LookupAndOpen[filefailed

 

Solution

Upon further investigation the Veeam Proxy had a Hot-Added disk still attached. I removed this disk via Edit Settings . We do not want to delete the files so ensure you DO NOT select "Delete files from datastore"), The VM then powered up.
