Error for file specified is not a virtual disk

I am trying to test something on our Windows Update server. The only thing that runs on this server is WSUS. I have taken the vmdk file and vmx file but keep getting the error posted in the subject. There are two drives on the server. The main one and the one where all the Windows updates are stored. Don't need the one where the updates are stored. In config file I noticed the 2nd drive was set to true and was pointing at the missing file. I have tried setting it to false and then removing those lines altogether but that hasn't help.

 

Here is the config file below. First time I'm doing this so any guidance is greatly appreciated.
