Will vConvert fail if a directory is compressed?

I have a server that fails on the C drive. I have ran chkdsk and all seems fine. There is one folder that is compressed. Will vConvert fail if a directory is compressed?

AFAIK that is no known problem.
On the other hand it is a known issue that storing vmdks on compressed NTFS is unreliable.
So it may indeed be a problem.
Please uncompress the directory on report the result.
