I successfully encrypted a VM image and confirmed it still runs. I then closed the VM and reopened it and confirmed the encryption password was valid and worked. However, now I want to un-encrypt the VM. When I choose that option, it asks for "your password". I assume this means the password I created when I encrypted it. It doesn't work. I can still open the VM with the password and run it. But, it refuses to remove the encryption using that password.
Am I missing something? Is there a password that I don't know about?
Some details:
- I created this image (using standalone converter; physical machine source)
- I converted it to ACE
- Converted back to a normal VM (un-ACE'd it)
- Encrypted it
- Cannot remove the encryption but can open it and run it
As you can see... I am exploring the VMware features. Thanks for any guidance you can give.
