vCenter standalone converter can convert machines to only VMware Infrastructure Machines, unfortunately there is no option to change the destination type as this software is provided at free of cost by VMware to convert loads to VMware Environment.

If you see the other option is VMware workstation again a VMware product. It will support only VMware Infra as a destination.

What is your destination ? Are you trying to convert the machine to Workstation VM ?
