Always need to delete minikube - context deadline exceeded

[mstimvol]

What Happened?

I'm using minikube on Windows with Hyper-V - because I had too much trouble with VirtualBox. But I recently updated my minikube installation and when I run minikube start it always says:

! Unable to restart cluster, will reset it: apiserver health: apiserver healthz never reported healthy: context deadline exceeded
  - Generiere Zertifikate und Schlüssel ...

When I delete the cluster and start it again, everything works well until I restart Windows. When I then run minikube start again to restore the cluster, it fails with the message above. Then I need to run minikube delete and minikube start again and everything works fine.

When I run with minikube start --alsologtostderr then I see the following errors:
