I am running Vagrant 2.3.7 on Windows 11. I have run into an issue where prior to the box booting, I need to run a command to “upgrade” the VM version. The command I need to run is “Update-VMVersion -VMName ”. I was looking at triggers and/or hooks, but I’m not able to find one that will trigger at the right spot. Here is the output when booting a box:
PS D:\Users\work\documents\repos\cs_lab> vagrant up sql --provider hyperv

The virtual machine could not be started because of a configuration error. Disable nested virtualization (stop exposing virtualization extensions to the virtual machine), or upgrade the virtual machine version.
If I run the command Update-VMVersion -VM (Get-VM cs_lab_sql_1694196240903_85757), then run my vagrant up again, it will boot just fine. Somewhere between the Successfully imported VM and Starting the machine... I need to run this command. Is there a way to accomplish this via the Vagrantfile?
The intent with this is to distribute the Vagrantfile and associated cookbooks to colleagues for training, so if I can make this as automatic as possible, that would be appreciated.
