I am using VMWare Workstation 17 and am running an instance of Windows 11 on it. As per Windows 11 requirements, all the files (including the .vmx) must be TPM encrypted. I am trying to modify the 'bios440.filename' in the .vmx, which can not be done through Workstation 17. I need to edit the encrypted .vmx with a text editor; how can I do that?

1Maybe this Python library/tool could help. I cannot test it, sorry.– Daniel BMay 7, 2023 at 19:01

After help from this community, I discovered the Python tool made for en/decrypting .vmx files.
