Hi

I am trying to convert one of my VM in VMware Workstation (.VMDK) to Hyper-V (.VHDX) In lot of forums it says to use MVMC. Unfortunately, MVMC not available to download and there's no alternative tool to convert VMDK to VHDX.

Can anyone please advise.

TIA

What built of vm work station was the first machine installed on?

Convert works for testing purposes on older systems (W7-8, server 08 or Linux) but for current builds of working server / 10 pro you want to fresh install
