I migrated my Win10 VMware image to Proxmox qcow2 format. Then I created a new VM of ID 100 and placed my converted image into /var/lib/vz/images/100.

Following instructions I edited /etc/pve/local/qemu-server/100.conf and changed just one line :

FROM ide0: local-zfs:vm-100-disk-0,size=32G
TO ide0: p620-win10.qcow2

But Starting the VM result in the following error :

vm 100 - unable to parse value of 'ide0' - format error
file: invalid format - unable to parse volume ID 'p620-win10.qcow2'

What am I doing wrong here?
