Hi all,
Got a little problem with one of my teams in VMWare Workstation 6.0. Power went in my house a couple of weeks ago when using the team and my PC shut off. Ever since then I cannot open the team as it believes that one of the files is still in use:
Could not open team: F:\Virtual Machines\JohnsonLAN03\JohnsonLAN03.vmtm.
The file is already in use.
Any idea how to unlock the file?

If I remember right, there's a .lck file or directory that needs to be deleted. You should probably rename it just to be safe (i.e. .lck > .lck.bak or something). -

Yes, the .lck file(s) on disk associated with the VMs need to be deleted.

Basically, Workstation uses them to determine if someone currently has the Virtual Machine open.Does the .lck lock the file?
