Hi Mat, This sounds like an OS issue, I think you can explore if there's something in your template you can configure to disable users from unplugging.
Since 4.17 is old now, there's perhaps something in the extraconfig you can pass but you'll need to investigate if libvirt/kvm has any confgiuration to disable hot-plugin feature and then use extraconfig [1]. That said, I wouldn't advise you to explore this, just explore if you can the OS.

When a windows vm is created the virtIO devices appear at the taskbar as available to unplug. Is there a way to disable hotplug functionality or another way to restrict hot-unplugging? regards Mat
