Back when Windows 11 was released I tried to encrypt my Windows 10 VM so I could add the TPM, but it failed. Since then I've been running Windows 10, but decided to try the new managedVM.autoAddVTPM = "software" flag when Fusion 12.2.0 was released. It worked and the Windows 11 upgrade tool now only complains about my i7-7700K being unsupported.
Today however when I started Fusion, I got a dialog saying something along the lines of "Encrypting VM" and there was a progress bar. Now I find my Windows 10 VM to be encrypted, and I don't have the password. The password I used when trying to set up encryption before when it failed does not work. Empty password does not work.
I'm not sure what to do now. If I can't remove the encryption from this VM I'm risking losing access to this windows license in the future, and if I restore from a backup of this VM it's going to be old and not have the latest software. The backup is also pre EFI conversion. Is there any way to remove the encryption? It never asks for a password (so far).
