If you have a HyperV Virtual Machine that shows only SETTINGS, EXPORT, RENAME and HELP on a CHECKPOINT that you want to delete, don’t panic. If your HyperV manager does not show DELETE as an option for a Checkpoint:
- Click REFRESH from the actions pane. Then right click on the Checkpoint and if DELETE is still not an option;
- Close and re-open the HyperV Manager. Then right click on the Checkpoint and if DELETE is still not an option;
- Click on the Checkpoint and press the DELETE key on your keyboard. Then right click on the Checkpoint and if DELETE is still not an option;
- Connect to the HyperV host using HyperV manager installed on a different computer
- Restart the HyperV host
- Use command line via PowerShell elevated as to run with admin privileges:
Get-VM <VM-NAME> | Remove-VMSnapshot
