• Cannot install VMware Workstation on Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit 11.1.1 - Please help

  You want to install VMware Workstation 11.1.1 on new 8.1 Windows Pro 64-bit PC.

  I had VMware Workstation 11.1.0, and deleted the original installer but did not finish the installation of the new version

  The installer gets about 2/3 way (progress bar) and then crashes, Windows Installer says Event Viewer hung.

  Race tried without firewall and AV, always not install question

  A ran the installer with / clean option and then tried again, but still he did not finish the installation process (crashes at the same place)

  Noticed in the Manager tasks that VMware Installer runs at about 14% of CPU, but nothing happens

  I'm really at a loss as to why I can't install VMware Workstation 11.1.1, all the other soft\ware settles very well.

  Please could someone help me?

  Thank you

  Someone had problems with VMWare Workstation running Windows 7 64 bit? My computer hangs when creating the virtual machine guests. I also have VirtualBox running very stable with Windows 7.

  Hi akpraveenand welcome to the VMware communities!

  Your laptop has Avast! Antivirus installed?  We have seen some recent reports of Avast! origin of the failure you see there.  If you have Avast! installed, you will need to uninstall temporarily to be able to install VMware Workstation (disabling Avast! is not enough).

  If you use another system antivirus or antimalware software, it may be interesting to try to disable it during the installation of VMware Workstation.

  Let us know if that solved the problem for you!

• Cannot install VmWare Workstation [index.htm error]

  Greetings and respect, community.

  I'm having a problem installing VMWare Workstation 7 or 8...

  Errors occur before the installation can be performed.

  I enclose the photos.

  During installation, vmware1.jpg comes up with an error.

  When I click Yes or no, vmware2.jpg sometimes... And all I can do is to kill the process...

  Can you assist?

  I deleted TEMP files. I changed the TEMP/TMP by default default path. I did everything that I could find about this error.

  How I read it, it is rather:

  "/Qn" passage to the installer should (hopefully it) bypass the Setup screens and install completely in the background.

• Running 32-bit only VMWARE Workstation on Windows 7 64 bit?

  Hello.

  I have installed VMWARE Workstation 7.1.1 build 282343. When I look in the Task Manager, I see that the process vmware.exe * 32 runs only in 32 bits. The program is installed unter C:\Programs (x 86).

  What's wrong? Why it doesn't in 64 bit mode"?

  Thank you

  Michael

  Hello Michael,

  The hypervisor operates in 64-bit, the process you are looking at is the UI, not the hypervisor.

  Looking for a process called vmware-vmx, it is the process that runs of your virtual machine.

  There is not really much to gain for VMware with the 64-bit user interface, the important part is the hypervisor and runs as a 64-bit process.

  Hope this helps,

• Cannot install VMWare Workstation 8 on Windows 7

  Hello

  Here we have a serious problem.

  We are trying to install the current version of VMWareWS8 (VMware-workstation-full - 8.0.1 - 528992) on windows 7 (acer aspire X 3990).

  During the installation process, an error: impossible to retrieve the installation path

  Error 1314. The specified path %COMMON_DOCUMENTS%\Shared computers virtual is not available

  followed by an another popup to error:

  The MSI 'C:\Users\dafunker\AppData\Local\Temp\vmware_1326209137\vmware workstation.msi' failed

  Error 1314. The specified path %COMMON_DOCUMENTS%\Shared computers virtual is not available

  We have successfully installed the same version of VMWare on the same model of computer (acer aspire X 3990) on windows 7 too, it worked like a charm (even without 'COMMON_DOCUMENTS' set env variable).

  I tried different things:

  -no firewall, no antivirus

  -run as administrator

  -define a valid common env var documents

  None of these things have been successful.

  The newspaper vminstall is attached to this post

  (The problem occurs at 16:25:59):

  VMInst-build-528992: 10/01/12-16:25:59 return InstallPath =
  VMInst-build-528992: 10/01/12-16:25:59 failed to retrieve chemin_installation.)

  Thank you for the help

  Hello and welcome

  I'll try this...
  Open regedit as an administrator
  find the key VMware, Inc. - on 32-bit hosts which is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc.
  It has a subkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc.\Installer\VMware workstation
  with a DATASTORE_PATH subkey that uses a value like "G:\\shared-vms".

  If you set to a path that fits your needs, the installation can run.

  While you're there... Check the permissions on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc.
  VMware Workstation installers like to mess up the permissions for this key

• Cannot install vmware workstation 7!

• K6V69AV #ABA: HP Desktop 500-520qe: cannot install VMWare Workstation

  I try to install the virtual machine using vmware workstation or vmware player.  But it gives me the message saying Intel vt - x is not enabled. I've seen a few videos youtube that says that I need to enable virtualization, but I don't seem to have seen.  Can anyone suggest if there is something else?

  Hello

  Open the command run and enter: MSINFO32

  The returned information will tell you if virtualization is enabled.  If this isn't the case, then you need to make a change in the BIOS to turn on VT is defined by default to disable.  See the image below.

  

• Cannot install VMWare Tools for Windows MCE

  Previously, I had Windows MCE installed and running on the VMware 1.x tools.

  I upgraded to VMware 2.0 and now I can't get the tools to install. When I click on "Install VMWare Tools", it brings up a window with the following in it:

  VMWare tools is not supported on this operating system.
  Check
  configuration of the virtual machine to make sure that the settings match to the
  operating system installed. See the documentation for more details
  on the guest operating systems supported.

  I checked the configuration of the virtual machine and this shows that the Windows operating system, as selected.

  I am running VMWare on Ubuntu 8.10, if that matters.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I compared it with mine and there are 2 major differences.

  First of all, I use older virtual material (version 4 instead of 7) but I do not expect that this is relevant to this problem. In addition, it makes little sense to use older virtual hardware unless your virtual machine must be compatible with VMware ESX. For example the old version of HW I use excludes the directx features, and you probably want to use.

  The other main difference is guestOS, in my version, it has the following value:

  guestOS = "winxppro"
  

  Could you try that and see if it helps?

  If this does not help then I'm afraid, we're going to need more details. In this case it might be useful to the vmware.log file loading

  One thing you might try must in any case completely re - install VMware tools in removing it first.

  In order to do not find themselves trapped by the windows activation logic or other inconveniences while experimenting, I recommend taking a backup of the virtual machine when it is completely stopped before doing anything else.

• Cannot install VMware Tools on Windows 10

  Having trouble installing VMware Tools on a Win10 business VM (vSphere 5.5). Installation lance then anything beyond that never reports. Is there something special that needs to be done to make this work?

  -Thank you

  Also have installed the Update Manager plugin that reports the status of inconsistent compliance.

  When you install the tools, you choose the Interactive installation or the Automated one?

  Try the Interactive installation instead.

  I also have a second comment from Andrew on Firewall/Antivirus possibly block Setup.  Try turning it off.  In addition, you may have to disable UAC.

  Before you download the installation files, you must select the correct bits of your computer type. You can download the files 64-bit here:

• Cannot install drivers for nothing - Windows Vista 64-bit

  I have a laptop Dell - Inspiron, with Windows Vista 64-bit. I just bought a HP Deskjet 3054 A multifunction printer and my computer will not install the drivers.  I had a Canon printer and had removed all software before you try to add the HP.  I even tried to reinstall, and each time to get a message to both say he is unable to install the drivers.  I currently have a windows update waiting for an update for the processor intel and it also will not be installed. This problem does not seem to be specific to the device, but rather a problem with Windows Vista and after reading a lot of discussion seems to be common.  But I still have no idea how to fix this.

  Have you tried to delete the file INFCACHE.1? Deleting the file INFCACHE.1 will force Windows to rebuild the file INFCACHE.1 next time window is looking for drivers.
