Hello,
Last week I decided to move from a Windows to Linux based host system. So I went through my VMs powered them down and copied them to another drive. I then installed Centos 7 and reinstalled VMWare Workstation 12 imported the VM back into VMWare and tried to start.
I got the following message...
"Unable to change virtual machine power state: Internal error"
Suspicious I looked at the folder containing the VM and noticed it contained snap shots. Doh!
I guessing this is pretty bad, not sure where to start?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
James
I have copied VM's, with and without snapshots, without problems. Have some running on OSX Fusion as well
The first thing I would check would be for .lck files and folders. If so, remove them.

Hi Louyo,
Thanks for your reply, I tried removing the .lck files but get the same result.
Actually, looking at the files there are no snap shots. Sorry my mistake, I forgot this VM has two drives. I will close this thread and start a new one.
Thanks for you help
