Hi,
I'm a little stumped, it's just a standard Windows 7 Pro desktop VM and snapshoting fails, any advice would be greatly appreciated?
Error in VMware client;
An error occurred while taking a snapshot: msg.snapshot.error-QUIESCINGERROR.
An error occurred while saving the snapshot: msg.snapshot.error-QUIESCINGERROR.
Error in vmware.log;
