Vmx Configuration File Vmware
The virtual machines that are working find few movements ago start showing windows 7.vmx is not a valid virtual machine configuration file. When I check for this vmx file from its original location, its showing 0kb size. I do not know the reason why exactly this happened but from somehow I able to start these machines again and now these machines are also working fine and save a lot of time to reconfiguration a new virtual machine. Solution for this problem is very straightforward, you can try the following process to repair your virtual machine. Copy a.vmx file from working virtual machine and paste it to directory of virtual machine that is showing the above error. You can also download the VMX file for VMware from link at bottom of this post and paste it to folder of VM having above issue.
The VMX files that are used by the VMware Fusion program are normally saved in a plain-text format. The VMX file format is similar to the CFG file format, however CFG files were used in earlier versions of the VM Workstation. The.vmx file suffix is also used for the Cubase Mixer software program. Editing the.vmx file of a VMware Workstation and VMware Player virtual machine. Locate the virtual machine's files. For more information, see Locating a hosted virtual machine's files (1003880). Open the virtual machine's configuration file (.vmx) in a text editor. When a new virtual machine is created with the New Virtual Machine Wizard or Configuration Wizard, the information collected by the wizard is saved to a file called.vmx on a Windows host or.cfg on a Linux host.The configuration file for that virtual machine is stored in the folder or directory specified in the wizard.
Now double click the newly added VMX file and power on the virtual machine, it will give the message for missing virtual machine disk format.vmdk file. Now browse the vmdk file from directory of infected virtual machine. And your machine will start working fine again.I hope this trick will also work for you.
