One of the disks in this virtual machine is already in use by a virtual machine or by a snapshot

Hi,

I am running Workstation 8.

I read the other posts about this problem and I am stumped.

I tried moving my VM onto an external drive but canceled half way through.

When I moved the files back my VM gave m the error.

I tried to merge the snapshots with this command vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -r "Windows XP Professional Ser Pac 3-000009.vmdk" -t 1 "../Windows XP Professional Ser Pac 3.vmdk"

but I get the message "vmware-vdiskmanager.exe is not a recognized file..."

I'm stuck and I need some help.

i am not a programmer I'm just a user.

Thanks,

SL
