MACOS OVF tool

# aditya @ Adityas-MacBook-Pro in /Applications/VMware OVF Tool [14:45:05] C:1

$ ./ovftool /Users/aditya/VirtualBox\ VMs/Windows\ 2000/Windows\ 2000\ Professional.vmx /Users/aditya/VirtualBox\ VMs/win2000.ovf

Opening VMX source: /Users/aditya/VirtualBox VMs/Windows 2000/Windows 2000 Professional.vmx

Error: File (/Users/aditya/Downloads/cd2 converted.iso) could not be found.

Completed with errors

(base)

I get this error when I try to run the ovf tool, I know the installation ran fine and did not need cd2 converted iso

Does the VirtualBox VM have a reference to /Users/aditya/Downloads/cd2 converted.iso in it's settings/properties?

It would usually be best practice to disconnect and removed unnecessary devices before exporting a VM.
