Either attach the vmware.log file to a post here so we can run a utility to extract the vmx from the log., or search for the log2vmx (I think that's the name/label) tool in the forum.

Done I upload the log files

thanks for your help

Did you do any snapshots of this VM?

Restoring VMs with snapshots can be tricky.
I strongly recommend that the first thing you do, is to backup the VM's files/folder, to have a way back in case something doesn't work as expected.

Here's what I like you to do:

1. close VMware Workstation
2. create a new directory on the E: drive (e.g. "E:\VM-Rescue")
3. run dir E:\VM\shubra\Shoubra\*.* /one > E:\VM-Rescue\filelist.txt
4. extract the files from the attached .zip archive to E:\VM-Rescue
5. Drag&Drop the VM's folder onto Get-VmdkHeader.cmd (this will extract the Metadata from the .vmdk files)
6. copy the VM's .vmsd, its .vmx, and .vmx~ files as well as the latest vmware.log to E:\VM-Rescue
7. compress/zip E:\Rescue, and attach the .zip archive to your next reply

Note: The attached scrips will only extract metadata, i.e. no user data.

thanks for your help this is the required compressed file

Any Update ??

What you may want to try is to delete the following files, and folders:

09/04/2022 02:47 PM 13,019,119,616 564d3b6c-4ff6-b00e-472c-9ea414dd5f4b.vmem
09/26/2018 08:23 PM <DIR> caches
09/04/2022 02:00 PM <DIR> Shoubra-Snapshot13.vmem.lck
09/24/2022 04:49 PM <DIR> Shoubra-Snapshot34.vmem.lck

and remove all lines from the .vmx file that contain "rollingtier" to disable "Autoprotect".

Same error appears

The snapshot chaining looks strange. Theres a cross reference in the chain, that havn't seen before!?

Assuming that you have a current backup of the VM's folder, delete the below files.
This should allow you to use the VM in its current state, but you can't switch between snapshots anymore.
