VM Convertor not showing status, or time remaining changes

Hi everyone,

Wondering if anyone else has seen this. I've been using convertor since about Oct. of last year when it was still in Beta release. Had absolutely no problems with it (I could move machines around easily, and etc). Since it went out of Beta, I have almost nothing but problems with it. One of the biggest issues is that if I'm importing something, the status and/or time remaining may not change. IF I check the file it's being copied to, something is happening as the size keeps changing.

Anyone else encountered that, and if so, do you have a fix. I've tried uninstalling and then reinstalling, but that doesn't seem to do much for me.

Are you doing the file by file copy, (ie, shrinking a partition)? If so, it only updates the status when it has finished copying the file. So if the file is extremely large, it could sit at say 33% for quite a while, hours actually, and then suddenly change to 72% when that particular file is finished.
