Hello,

This is a very common problem.

Solution:

1. You first need to make sure that the VM is not actively running on VMware Server.

2. Also, you ought to make sure that VMware Server does not have a lock on the VM’s files. You have to stop all VMware Server Services and/or reboot the (VMware) server.

3. Finally, it is a must that you have required permissions to the VM’s files.

Alternatively, the link might be helpful.

Hope that helps!
