getting Error while converting a VM from Hyper-v to ESXi using Vmware converter

[USK_2017]

Hi All,

I am trying to convert a Hyper-v(server 2012) Virtual Machine to ESXi 6.5 using VMware converter Standalone version and getting error as "permission to perform this operation was denied".

I am a Domain administrator and local admin on the converter machine and running the VMware converter as administrator.

UAC is disabled on Hyper-V host.

let me know if i am missing any steps

Thanks in advance.

Do you want to convert the HyperV machine itself or some VM running on it? The screenshot posted is from the second case.

If you want the machine itself, convert it as a powered on Windows source.
