Thank you for the response. Tried it many times. Including deleting Boot Camp folder and related plists before trying again. The same issue even with a fresh setup I am afraid.
Trying to setup a boot camp VM for the first time. Boot camp is setup correctly, boots up fine if I use the option key. It also works fine with Parallels so I am assuming the Windows itself is fine...

Trying to setup a boot camp VM for the first time. Boot camp is setup correctly, boots up fine if I use the option key. It also works fine with Parallels so I am assuming the Windows itself is fine. When I try to create boot camp VM I get the error: The Boot Camp volume is not prepared to run as a virtual machine. It appears that Windows did not shut down cleanly the last time it was used. I followed VMware recommendation (changing startup disk to Windows from macOS and reverse) several times and I am quite sure it is actually shutdown correctly. Log file is attached. According to this fusion finds the correct drive and windows directories, but then fails. I tried all other older recommendations in these forums, not sure what I can do next. Thanks
