Whenever I try to convert a fusion windows10 VM to parallels I run into this error: Unable to convert this virtual machine The virtual machine EFI configuration is not valid. fusion is having no problems running the VM.
Hi ivahost. Please follow the steps as mentioned in the blog to convert the VMware Virtual Machine to Parallels Desktop for Mac. If the issue still persists, follow the steps from this article to resolve the issue.
I was able to use the parallels transport agent to convert it to a parallels vm but the resulting VM would not boot. It would jus sit there after saying booting from sata 1 or something like that. I managed to fix it by doing the exact oposite of the KB article said. the fix was to put vm.bios.efi=1 in the advanced boot options.
Nice to know that you were able to sort out the issue and thanks for sharing the steps that resolved it. Please post again for further queries.
