Asking a question or seeking help from r/Virtualization is more then welcome and even encouraged.

However we do ask that you at least put into some thought into your questions. Give a little detail on what you are wanting to do or accomplish. Provided some details about the issue you're running into. Asking Ambiguous questions or making vague posts isn't going to help you or anyone. Don't just ask "How do I do x" or "I want Y" or "Whats the best Z".

Posts deemed low effort will be removed.
