Doesn't that just create a new appvm? I want to access my existing ones from the previous install, not create new ones. I put a lot of hours into getting them set up the way I wanted them, and they contain important data I don't want to lose. I am wondering if creating new ones of the same name, then overwriting the img files with the old ones would work.
