I forgot to mention: Manually installing the .msi from C:\ will give me a
working guest agent channel. So I'm fairly certain it just doesn't get executed.

Hi,
rwmjones from #guestfs on libera IRC pointed me to this mail address.
I've noticed that converting the latest Windows 11 trial image via virt-v2v does
not install the guest agent any more on first boot. I have let the machine
settle for ~10 minutes to ensure it's not just because I'm too impatient. I can
see C:\qemu-ga-x86-64.msi, and also a bunch of files in "C:\Program
Files\Guestfs\Firstboot\" and .\Scripts, so the files are definitely copied onto
the VM image, just not executed for some reason.
The vmware image was downloaded from
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/virtual-machines/. The
issue should be 100% reproducible (at least for me). I recall that an older
image from two, three weeks ago downloaded from the same location did not have
this issue. There guest agent was installed and working on the first boot.
Unfortunately I overwrote the image so I cannot verify this.
I have attached the debug output of the virt-v2v run of the latest image where
this issue is apparent (guest agent not being installed).
Please let me know if there's anything else I can check, or if you need any
further info.
Cheers,
Lee
