Strange Creation Date on Hyper-V 2012 R2 VM
I have some VM´s on my new Windows 2012 R2 host that have a strange creation date on the properties.
The VM´s have been created on different times and it was a customer that noticed it.
quite fun as there was not computers or even Hyper-V invented in the 17 century or was it? 😉
Here is my lab/demo VMM 2012 R2 virtual machine and as you can see it is created the 1 of january 1601
and here is the other virtual machine, a windows 8 template
I have not been able to reproduce it now with either PowerShell or via the GUI, If you have seen the same issue please comment the post 🙂

Hello Niklas,
I have the same dates on all of my VMs created on a Windows 8.1 Hyper-V client. I believe this is a known bug. It happens after a reboot. In fact, if you start the VM, then stop the service (Hyper-V Virtual Machine Management service), the creation date will be correctly shown.

Hi Reidar,
Thank you. It worked for me.
Seems to be an old bug that will never be fixed. Just restart the vmms service (Hyper-V Virtual Machine Management) to fix.
