Pavan, I just went through some issues with this recently. If the machines are just using UEFI to boot, the process went smoothly for us. We had some Windows VMs that caused us issues. These were configured for UEFI boot and also had Credential Guard enabled. UEFI boot is required to enable that particular security feature. We're still digging into the exact cause of the issue and the fix.
