Just testing the features of the full version. I have had a possibly similar sort of problem with comments in the job files causing chained jobs not to start, BTW. Removing them solved it.

I performed a test backup of a VM which was never renamed and the behaviour when trying to restore it is the same.

No, it does not.

Centos7_Samba_109/Centos7_Samba.vmx

But the source VM was renamed once (adding the number) with the use of the VMware client.
