.log Keeps a log of the VM activity. This file can be useful in troubleshooting if
you encounter problems.
.nvram Stores the state of the VM's BIOS.
.vmdk Virtual disk file which stores the contents of the VM's hard disk drive. A virtual disk is
made up of one or more .vmdk files. If you have specified that the virtual disk should be
split into 2 GB chunks, the number of .vmdk files depends on the size of the virtual disk.
Almost all of a .vmdk file's content is the VM's data, with a small portion allotted to VM
overhead.
<diskname><####>.vmdk A redo log file, created automatically when a VM has one or more
snapshots. This file stores changes made to a virtual disk while the
VM is running. There may be more than one such file. The ####
indicates a unique suffix added automatically to avoid duplicate
file names.
.vmem The VM's paging file, which backs up the guest main memory on the host file system.
This file exists only if the VM is running, or if the VM has crashed.
<snapshot_name_and_number> Each snapshot of a VM that is powered on has an associated
.vmem file, which contains the guest's main memory, saved as
part of the snapshot.
.vmsd A centralized file for storing information and metadata about snapshots.
.vmsn The snapshot state file, which stores the running state of a VM at the time you take that
snapshot.
.vmss The suspended state file, which stores the state of a suspended VM.
.vmtm Configuration file containing team data.
.vmx The primary configuration file, which stores settings chosen in the New Virtual Machine
Wizard or virtual machine settings editor.
