Hi
I'm new to the Mac world am running Mojave and I'm suffering from being unable to boot up Fusion 11 on a regular basis with Windows 10, the message above pops up in a box when I try
I've deleted and then reinstalled my Window 10 virtual machine many times and have managed to get it running for 3 days running max. I do power down my iMac each night and it only happens after a restart of my iMac Yesterday I had the message appear when booting into windows, simply restarted my Imac and it was fine.
Today thought I was back to square one as I couldn't get it to start however after closing down and then reopening a few times I managed to get it working.
I have seen solutions ( Unable to open file ".../Boot Camp.vmwarevm/Boot Camp.vmdk": The system cannot find the file specifi... )which to be honest involved creating/running a script and was way above my head as I wouldn't know where to start.
I've also seen the suggestion about going into VM Machine/Settings/Advanced and changing Administrative priviledges to Always Ask - Mine already is.
I haven't activated my copy of Windows 10 just incase it causes me further problems if I have to reinstall again and again.
This seems to be such a common problem, is the an official solution or something I have missed
Any help appreciated
Thanks for looking

Thanks Heralds, for your reply.
I do still get the message come up every few days, however I do manage to start up Windows in VMWare if I restart my pc.
