Hi! When I had problems with a VMware virtual machine disk, I usually used the built-in tools to repair the file system. If vmware disk needs repair, you can try this method. For example, if you have a Windows guest system, try using the chkdsk command at the command prompt. For Linux, you can use fsck. It's also worth looking at possible errors in VMware logs to better understand the cause of the problem.

In addition to using the built-in tools, I would recommend backing up your virtual machine before starting the repair procedure. This will keep your data safe and allow you to recover if the repair fails. Also, if you have VMware Tools installed on your guest system, make sure they are up to date as they can provide additional tools to work with the disk.
