VMware Workstation - I moved it or I copied it?

Question

VMware

Good day to all! The question arose, what should I choose I moved it or I copied it ?
The task is this, there is a working VM, I want to copy it and create a new one, so to speak, that is, a new working VM, but with a finished OS, etc.
Roughly speaking, a working VM needs to be copied, brought in as a new VM for other tasks, so as not to create a VM from scratch with the installation of OS and software. The main thing is that it should be an individual VM, and not a copy, so that they can work simultaneously and do not interfere with each other in any way, and do not store each other's data. I apologize for such an explanation, it is difficult to formulate.

Answer 1

If you plan to use both in the same hypervisor, then choose copied.
Moved will simply update the path for a machine that already exists in the hypervisor instead of creating a new one.
