I tried the VMWare forums and see a lot of suggestions for olderconverter versions most of which are trying to fool the converter by changing the .vmx file Operating System line to something else. I tried this already using several different OS suggestions found and it did not work.

I had the similar issue while a converting an Windows 7 VM in VMware standalone vCenter convertor 5.x recently, after did spend time in troubleshooting and finally did this simple thing , I removed the VM from the inventory and re-added again. That's it ! It worked like a charm ! Hope it helps someone !
