Hi everyone,
I have an issue with my Fusion 2.0.6 installation on my Snow Leopard iMac relating to a 'file not found error'. I have done my best to scan the community posts to see if someone has experienced this before. I found several posts, and tried the suggestions in those posts, but I still have not been able to resolve.
I am trying to restore from a full backup of my XP VM. This is not a Time Machine backup; just a straight backup of the entire VM using SuperDuper (part of my nightly backup routine). To restore, I copied:
from --> BACKUP/Users/John/Documents/Virtual Machines/Windows XP Home Edition.vmwarevm
to --> MacHD/Users/John/Documents/Virtual Machines/Windows XP Home Edition.vmwarevm
From Fusion, I opened the Windows XP Home Edition VM, only to get the error:
"File not found: Windows XP Home Edition-000005-s001.vmdk. This file is required to power on this virtual machine. If this file was moved, please provide its new location."
I browse for the .vmdk file (which is there), and repeatedly get the same error message.
Interestingly, when I try open the same VM from the backup location, I also get the same error.
Really stuck now, and not sure what to do. Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
John
