failure to convert physical machine to virtual

I used Vcenter standalone converter 6.5 on a VMware workstation machine.

After approximately 5 hours of operations at last some error happened probably the USB plug in which virtual machine was being generated became loose.

Screenshot below.

I again next day tried to create a virtual machine from the physical machine but  operation this time had permissions error.

As in screenshot below.

I am trying to create virtual machine approximately 500Gb of a laptop which is powered on and is having 1TB hard disk.

Did you start the Converter in elevated mode, i.e. using "Run as Administrator" from the pop-up menu?
