Importing a parallels windows 7 VM encrypted with macafee endpoint encryption

Hi,

I am running my work  environment in a VM that is completly managed by my employer. They use Macafee endpoint encryption to encryp the local drive. This works fine in Parallels but lately parallels have had some problems in their performance on yosemite and their licensing terms are also starting to bug me. So since vmware lets me run my copy of fusion on all my macs I thought the time had come to try fusion out.

 

The problem I ran into when trying to migrate the Parallels vm was that at the end of the process the importer would say the VM was not cleanly shut down and after pressing yes it deletes the migrated machine. I suspects this is since fusion is not able to read the encrypted filesystem. I also discovered that while it is waiting for your response to the error message I can copy the migrated VM using finder and after ansering yes I can rename the copy back to the original name and launch the converted VM without problems. Everything works fine.

 

Is there any way to tell fusion not to do a integrity check of the converted machine?
