Hi, first time writer, long time reader 😯 Can someone help with my query please?

I never seem to have any/much success with rebooting from a snapshot in VMWare Workstation. Everything appears to be in order from when I take the snapshot, finding it again in VM complete with thumbnail tantalisingly showing me my snapshot but when I go to boot it says it can't locate the snapshot and does nothing! This is really annoying - especially when you are trying to boot a server which takes aaaages to load in VMWare!

Any suggestions are welcome! Thanks in advance for your hints tips, or I welcome any fellow ranters - just so I don't feel so alone!!! 😉

Cheers!

Greetings,

Have you tried posting this on a VMware forum? You're liable to get a lot more eyes on your problem there.

You also might want to mention your base OS, the hardware you're running on, the version of VMware you're using, and other details that might help people help you.
