I have installed an operating system on my virtual machine. However, my pc didnt shut down correctly at a time. After the incident i could not boot my operating system within vmware. When i checked my vmx file, i discovered this line of code was missing smc.version = “0”
Upon adding it, it causes an error saying the vmx file is corrupt. Is there a way t can make it work? Do i need to recreate another vmx file?
