Found the solution -
Open powershell in admin mode
type get vm (to verify the hyper-v server names)
type remove-vm -name (server name) -force
BOOM!

Hello,
The storage for the hyper-v machines is gone. The VMs are running on another server so we don't care about getting them back on this server. We just want to remove them from hyper-V manager on this server.
I've tried uninstalling hyper-v and reinstalling but they come back. There doesn't seem to be any way to delete them, right click on them or get rid of them.
Found the solution -
Open powershell in admin mode
type get vm (to verify the hyper-v server names)
type remove-vm -name (server name) -force
BOOM!
For PowerShell correct command names are:
Get-VM
Remove-VM
Hi @Boe Dillard
You should be able to left click on one and on the bottom right, under action list, you should get a delete virtual machine option.
Let me know
Thanks - I do not see that - I'm left clicked on the bottom one.
The only option i see is help - which is of no help :)
Sorry I'm not following. This is a secondary server- it had the VMs replicated to it but it no longer has them - the storage was wiped out. They are still running fine on the other server so I just want to remove them from this server.
There is no longer any replication set up on the first server that is functioning with they hyper-v virtual machines running fine.
The VMs are not clustered but originally there was replication from our primary server to this one - there is no longer any replication between the two.
