Virtual PC 2007 Console window won' t show

Happened me last nigh, my VPC:s ran just fine but I could only access the console through the traybar.

Evidently, the options.xml file has been damaged, or at least there are faulty values in it.

You have to view hidden systemfiles to find:

C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Virtual PC\Options.Xml

find the console section and you will find that the layout parameters are way off, like max(int). Change the left/right etc to 10 or something similar and the window will pop back to the desktop. You must close all VPC:s and console to be able to save the options file.

All creds go to the following blogger,
