I was moving files onto my desktop while in Windows 2008 image, and get an image that the image was no longer valid. After trying to open the file several times, I removed the pvm from the virtual machine list, on double clicking the image, I got a response that said the bundle was invalid.
To try to fix things, I moved a config.pvs file to the same directory and was excited to see that the file opened, but windows is trying to do a fresh install. In order to get at my data, I loaded the pvm as an image, but couldn't find any of the data there, even though the file is 14 GB.
My directory structure looks like:
drwx--x--x 2 Tim staff 68 Oct 14 20:37 Snapshots
drwx--x--x@ 9 Tim staff 306 Oct 14 18:28 Windows Server 2008.pvm
-rwx------ 1 Tim staff 17563 Oct 14 21:54 config.pvs
-rwx------ 1 Tim staff 17563 Oct 14 21:54 config.pvs.backup
-rw-rw-rw- 1 Tim staff 177373 Oct 14 21:56 parallels.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 1407 Oct 14 21:54 statistic.log
-rw-rw-rw- 1 Tim staff 1207959552 Oct 14 21:55 {746e9f25-14d4-43fe-aa4d-22182a37cb4e}.mem
I am really hopeful that I can get access to my files. Please advise.

Tim
