Hi,

If you do not want to lose the data on the VM instance, you will need to save the boot disk and any other disk attached to the VM instance, then delete the affected VM instance and create a new one and attach the disks to it. Here are the steps:

1. From the Console, go to Compute Engine> VM Instances

2. Click on the affected VM instance and then Click "Edit"

3. Uncheck the box that says "Delete boot disk when instance is deleted"

4. Save the changes

5. Delete the affected VM instance

6. Create a new VM instance

7. Use the same Region of the affected VM instance

8. Click on "Change" on the Boot Disk option and then click on "Existing disks"

9. Choose the disk you saved in step 3.

10. Configure the VM instance the same as the deleted VM instance and then click "Create".

This will create a new VM instance using the same boot disk from the affected VM instance.
