STATUS_QUERY_STORAGE_ERROR
A storage-query path failed in the virtualization stack
This status belongs to the lower storage, disk, virtual-disk, or file-system repair path. For STATUS_QUERY_STORAGE_ERROR, treat it as a boundary between the caller and the storage stack, not as a generic application error.
This status is returned from virtualization storage queries rather than ordinary file I/O. It points to the virtual disk, virtual storage provider, or host storage layer involved in answering a query.
For STATUS_QUERY_STORAGE_ERROR, the most useful evidence is the failing operation, device or volume identity, storage-event log, disk health data, and whether the volume was online, read-only, virtualized, encrypted, compressed, sparse, or under repair.
What to inspect
- Identify the virtual disk or VM storage object queried.
- Check host storage, virtualization, and VHD/VHDX events.
- Separate query failure from guest file-system corruption.
