Re: temp-flat file

Hi there and thanks. I;m in vmware settings (Guest not running) and add hard disk then select existing virtual disk. The thing is, the two files mentioned have no extension, just temp and temp-flat. If I open the temp file in a text editor, the below shows the contents. Incidentally, the temp-flat has a size of the virtual hard drive with both partitions (allocated and unallocted). There is no vmdk files.

Thanks again for any help on this, RB
