How to resolve internal error when starting a VMware virtual machine?

If you encounter an internal error when starting a virtual machine in VMware, you can try the following troubleshooting methods:

  1. Restart the VMware software: Try shutting down and restarting the VMware software, and then attempt to open the virtual machine again.
  2. Check the virtual machine configuration: make sure the configuration file of the virtual machine is not damaged or incorrect. You can try creating a new virtual machine configuration file and adding the original virtual machine hard disk file to the new configuration file.
  3. Check the virtual machine disk files: Internal errors may be caused by damaged virtual machine disk files. You can try recovering backup virtual machine disk files or creating a new virtual machine disk file and importing the original data.
  4. Update your VMware software: Make sure you are using the latest version of VMware software, as sometimes internal errors may be caused by incompatible software versions or bugs. Try upgrading to the latest version.
  5. Check the system environment: make sure your computer meets the minimum requirements of VMware and that there are no other software or drivers conflicting with VMware. You can try closing other programs and services, and then attempt to start the virtual machine again.

If none of the above methods are able to solve the issue, it is recommended to contact VMware official customer service or community for assistance.
