The file specified is not a virtual disk. Can't start VM

Hi, I'm unable to start a VM with error "The file specified is not a virtual disk".

The VM has 3 disks, I also get the aforementioned error when I try to inspect the 3rd disk settings via UI, the other 2 disks go without the error when I click on them.

 

The VM uses "encryption" feature.

(I've tried removing vmem, vmss, dmp files from VM folder - no luck.)

 

VMware Workstation version=12.1.1 build-3770994

VM's "Hardware Compatibility" is "Workstation 6.5-7.x"
