    <description>&lt;P&gt;I have a 32 bit physical workstation running Windows XP.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Trying to install&amp;nbsp;VMware converter 6.2.0 fails with error:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=""&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;"Error 1920.Service VMware vCenter Converter Server (vmware-converter-server) could not start. Make sure you have sufficient privileges to start system services.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=""&gt;This is likely because the new versions of the converter don't support Windows XP. I've used starwind converter before, but it won't work on&amp;nbsp;32 bit machines.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=""&gt;Any advice for a supported product/process that would accomplish this?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=""&gt;Thank you.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You might use a combination disk2vhd and Ventoy.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Imho substituting old applications with newer releases and migrating data gives you more choices than encapsulating the workstation as a vm. Encapsulating cannot deal with expired certs, datetime culprits and security related issues.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Can you run the converter on a machine that is 64 bits? Then you can virtualise the xp computer.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
