@32sav Since you mention XP, I am assuming that you are referring to virtual machines which were created by VMware Workstation that was running on your XP installation? The virtual machines could be stored anywhere on the system. Where exactly all depends on whether you stuck with the default location when creating the virtual machine or whether you specified a custom location. The default location on Windows XP is
C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Virtual
Machine

@VMwareKB The "username" would be whatever username you are currently logged in as. If you cant find them in this location, then you can perform a "Search" in Windows and search for files ending with the file extension .vmx or .vmdk. If there are virtual machines on your system, then that should find them. Hope that helps!

@VMwareKB friend ... i formatted my computer to windows 7.... are my vm files still alive..or i need to download them???

@32sav If you formatted your host operating system from one operating system (Windows XP) to another operating system (Windows 7) then all of the previous data on the filesystem would probably have been overwritten. If you did not backup your data before doing this formatting task, then the chances are that you have lost this data :-(.

Is this the same process for windows to backup the VM files?

@CanecaProductions This KB video and it's associated KB article is specifically regarding the VMware Fusion virtualization platform that runs on a Mac OS. For our Windows based virtualization platforms like VMware Workstation, a similar process can be applied. Simply navigate to where your virtual machines are stored and then backup the relevant virtual machine files.
