Hi everyone!

I'm trying to convert from a virtual machine .vmdk to hyper-v but, when I select it, the message is the next one:
error opening file (2) 0 disk encoding error.

I have read that this error has happened previously but I tried the different solutions and nothing happened. I tried to execute it as administrator, the vm is powered off...

Can you please check if there are any snapshots for that disk? Please also make sure the converter is run as administrator.

Verify File Integrity: Ensure the .vmdk is not corrupted.
Convert with Third-Party Tools: Use software like qemu-img to convert the .vmdk to .vhdx.
Check Disk Type: Ensure the .vmdk is a supported type (e.g., monolithic or flat).
Permissions: Confirm you have full permissions and run as administrator

I have the same error as you and I still haven't solved it.
