Convert vhd to vmdk

[scparker]

Hello,

I have been given a vhd of an application. I am looking to convert this into a vmdk. I have tried using converter to do this, but it does not appear to recognise this as a workable format. SHould I being trying to convert, or should I be trying something else instead?

Kind regards,

Stephen

You can use WinImage to convert from .vhd to .vmdk:

Hello,

Thank you to you both. Both proved very useful and easy to use as well. Thanks!

Just to add to this. The Starwinds Converter is much more expensive on storage. The file converted to 80GB with no choice in changing the size. WinImage however, created it in just 14GB. So really, the correct answer and helpful answer should be switched around.

Thanks again to both however, most useful.

Sincerely,

Stephen
