Description

Hello,
I get the following error message when starting:

Cannot open the disk 'C:\ProgramData?\vSwarm Client\vSwarm_Client.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.
Reason: Failed to lock the file.

I'm running Vista, can there be problems with my OS? What am I doing wrong?

  • resolution set to wontfix

This is a known problem, sorry for this and was only described in the forums so far. I added to the wiki how to fix it manually:
http://support.vswarm.com/wiki/ClientTroubleShooting

(first item, "Client launch")

This problem may occur when VMware Player hangs and is killed or the system reboots while VMware Player is open, we can not fix this atm.
