In preparation for updating to Parallels 14, I chose to shut down my Win 7 VM and reclaim the expanding drive's space. However, during the process, Parallels froze after I waited a number of hours for the process to complete. After force quitting, I tried starting the VM only to find it was trashed. I mounted the .hdd file and the Windows and Program Files directories were empty.
I'm now trying to get some files off the virtual disk (.hdd), but I keep getting a Finder error -36 every time I try to copy more than one file. The individual files I am able to get off the .hdd appear to be OK, but I can't keep copying files one at a time. Googling finds trying "dot_clean" for error -36, but this is not working.
Anybody ever have an issue like this? I'm not thrilled about losing my VM, but if I can get the files off the virtual drive, then I'll create a nice new clean Windows 10 VM. I have a ticket in to Parallels support, but I wanted to see if anybody here had any suggestions.
