Defrag/Compact disc does not work in VMware Player 7.0

When the choice of defragmentation or compacts, he paused for a brief moment and says that it is complete.  The progress bar didn't even time to appear and the Task Manager shows no activity important drive for the file be defragmented/compacted.

My host is running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit (guest OS does not seem to matter--arrives on Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 8.1, etc.).

At least one other person is having this problem.

Re: Shrinking / compacting of a virtual disk

Does anyone have a work around for this?  What is VMware knows about the problem?

I found a work around.  The VDDK is an application that narrows and defragments virtual disks.

Retractable Compact command: vmware - vdiskmanager.exe - k "".

Defrag command: vmware - vdiskmanager.exe - d ''.

  • RHEL or centos 5.3 does not work under vmware to 6.5.2

    Hi all

    I use vmware to 6.5.2 workstation on linux.

    RHEL or centos 5.3 does not work under vmware 6.5.2. When I launch a 5.3 rhel or centos 5.3 on vmware workstation 6.5.2 on linux installation and configuration goes off well. and I can't connect to the internet as well. normally, I put a static IP address and move forward with things.

    but once I'm done for the day I closed the comments and also the host machine. When I start the computer host the next day I get a message (I moved it Cancel I copied it)

    normally, I click on "I copied it" and move forward. When I start the operating system, I find that IP in DHCP address switches and the many changes that I made to go to pot. It normally happens when I create a linked to the base OS clone original.

    never, I face this problem when I used it with vmware for windows and I used this clone related all this time.

    could someone please shed more light on this? I do not feel this type of error deskto openfiler or suse. I use clone bound only with openfiler and suse.

    that linked clones are of concern. Here's what I do.

    I have install say hundred os 5.3 as a basic OS and do not touch.

    Ok

    When I want to test something on this subject I create a linked clone (which automatically creates a snapshot).

    now when I want to create another instance of hundred bones, I create another clone related base (another cliché separate) and work on it.

    Although for Workstation is you actually have a 'new' virtual machine and if you copied or moved is a good question. The problem is that most people do not understand the consequences of the choice of one over the other. If you have NEVER 2 clones related running at the same time, then you would like just to use the "move" option In this case your linked clone is just an advanced preview where you have 2 lines long that are independent from each other.

    OTOH if you go for a start more as a related clone, then you will get problems when they are in the same network they will try both to claim the same IP because they have the same MAC address network. This can cause all sorts of weird problems. If you choose the option "clone", while these problems do not occur, but you will have to reset some settings such as address IP etc...

  • USB foot pedal problem (Infinity IN-USB-2): recognized by Windows but does not work on VMware Workstation 10

    When I connect an Infinity IN-USB-2 pedal for my guest Windows 7 Professional (on Ubuntu 14.04 and VMware Workstation 10.0.2), the pedal gets recognized by Windows and different applications, but by pressing the pedal itself has no effect.

    I downloaded a USB foot pedal Tester (http://vec-infinity-in-usb-1-foot-pedal-tester.soft112.com/) on the client and he acknowledged that the device is connected, but when I pressed on any of the three pedals, the tester has not detected the presses.

    I tried the pedal on a real Windows computer, and it worked fine.

    When I connect the pedals, even with the guest in the foreground, VMware Workstation will appear a dialog box:

    The specified device is claimed by another (usbhid) driver on the host operating system. The device can be used. To continue, the appliance will be first disconnected from its current driver. [Cancel] [OK]

    When I click 'OK', we state above: Windows recognizes that the device is connected, but foot-presses are not detected. My other USB devices are not pop this dialog box. (Click Cancel maintains the device disconnected from the guest.) I don't know if the dialog box is significant or a red herring.

    Here's what/var/log/syslog says when I connect the pedal with the Windows client in the foreground:

    kernel: [281434.822751] usb 2 - 1.7: new low speed USB device number 28 using ehci-pci

    kernel: [281434.920667] usb 2 - 1.7: new USB key found, idVendor is 05f3, idProduct = 00ff

    PSG-probe: bus: 2, device: 28 is not a MTP device

    And when I click on "OK" to the dialog, he said:

    kernel: [281480.900448] usb 2 - 1.7: reset low speed USB device number 28 using ehci-pci

    When I unplug the device, it is said:

    kernel: [281517.582472] usb 2 - 1.7: unplug USB, the device number 28

    Thanks for the ideas on solving this problem.

    Answering my own question: I spoke with a salesman who told this pedal does not work on virtual machines for the following reason:

    These pedals are all just Universal USB controllers that require programs or applications to be able to see and recognize them for use. Because they are installed by the base of Windows and Generic USB devices drivers, they can not be seen my remote computers via USB sharing etc.

    They recommended using a hotkey program to work around the problem. I have not tried this solution, but bought a different pedal that works out of the box with VM: a vP-1 vPedal. Lower build quality than infinity (in my opinion) but it works perfectly.

    This is the idea of the key of the seller:

    I have a solution that will allow you to use the pedal as expected if the remote program who need to use supports the use of shortcut keys. For example, these pedals are commonly used with NCH Software Express Scribe professional software. This software can use either a pedal, or you can assign the playback functions to access keys. In the scenario you are talking you re Express Scribe on the remote computer to use keyboard shortcuts, you then install Pedalware (http://www.altoedge.com/pedalware/index.html), a free Windows only the foot pedal utility made by NCH Software, you then use the Pedalware utility to assign the buttons on the pedal of a keyboard shortcut that coincides with those remote program.

  • Synaptics touchpad two fingers scrolling does not work in the player to develop modern UI application Windows 8.1

    I have a HP Envy TouchSmart UltraBook 4-1161er. Two fingers to scroll worked well in all modern user interface applications that come with the pre-installed operating system Windows 8.1, but the situation changed after the upgrade to Windows 8.1. Now this excellent and very useful two fingers scrolling does not work in the updated reader application. How to make it work?

    If the problem is in the drivers, maybe, install the drivers the latest may correct this?

    I tried to find the latest drivers for the touchpad Synptics in my ultrabook on the HP website, but it's the same old v16.5.3.3, I already have (published in may 2013). Synatics official site contains a link to the latest touchpad driver pack v17.0.19. Can I install it?

    I would try to install the Windows 8.1 (64-bit) driver Synaptics touchpad available in the download section of your sleekbook web support before using compatibility mode.  If the current driver does not work for you, try the earlier versions available .

    If you have no positive results, then use the compatibility mode (select Windows 8) on all three Windows 8.1 synaptics touchpad drivers, starting with the most recent.

    To use compatibility mode to install the driver just softpaq to the right, click on the file and choose troubleshoot compatibility. Select Windows 8 and run the installer.

    I posted this question 25 and have not yet received response. Because of this problem of crash, I can't do anything on my computer apart from solitaire game and hang out Adobe communities looking for an answer. I found several issues like mine (Mac, firefox, flash player constantly crashing) who have no answers either, and I'm getting upset. I've been floating around Mozilla and Apple Help sections, and there is no answer there either. How can I get an answer? Or is there just no fix for this problem and Flash player does not work on mac more? Y at - it another program that I can use instead of Flash player? I like a lot to an answer, the answer, or anything cause I've stuck here until then. Thank you for you time.

    Here are several reports of incidents:

    Adobe Flash Player 16.0.0.305

    Hello

    Since last week, Adobe Flash Player did not work on my computer at all. I can't watch videos and a webpage using Flash for accidents of ads.  I tried to use Adblock, thinking at first that the ads were the problem because they froze my computer in the past. There is nothing, so I went through the guide for Flash on the Mozilla Web site problems.  I removed all plugins, disabled acceleration hardware and even uninstalled Firefox and Flash player, then the reinstalled again. Still, it crashes and I don't know what to do anymore.   Is there something that can be done? Thank you for your time.

  • Autorun does not work on DVD player

    I am an American residing currently in Madrid, Spain. I had just handed a Dell Vostro 200 M - Windows Vista Business. He has a LG GSA - H73N ATA Device DVD player. I made the Dell updates the drivers and downloaded the firmware GSA-H73N C106.zip from the Dell ftp site. After you unzipped and installed firmware, the Autorun does not work for software. This will work for an audio CD or the video/movie DVD, but not for any kind of software CD. I spent an hour on the phone with a Dell Spanish techno that had me even reinstall Windows, nothing helps. He seems to think that the problem is a kind of incapatability with Windows Vista and the DVD LG player and that's why Dell is not responsible. Now that makes a lot of sense! Then, I tried searching for the firmware directly at LG, but can not find information about a cd/dvd LG GSA-H73N ATA drive. It seems to me that LG makes this model exclusively for Dell. Anyone out there have one solution other than sending back the computer to Dell?


  • Does not work in Flash Player 10.2 VideoEvent

    Same code works in 10.1 and earlier versions, but does not work on 10.2... Is - this bug or intentional? Is it possible to run VideoEvent in flash player 10.2?

    The compiler seems to be confusion fl.video.VideoEvent with flash.events.VideoEvent. Just use the path of the entire class, as follows:

    vidPlayer.addEventListener (fl.video.VideoEvent.READY, videoReady);

    And in the event handler:

    function videoReady (e:fl.video.VideoEvent): void

  • Re: Satellite L300 - made recovery but disc does not work

    I have a Satellite L300 and did a few sets of recovery discs from what I read some brands work and some don't, and none have so far.

    Insert Diskette 1, press the button and hold F12 key until the startup option appears.
    Select CD/DVD and then back type box appears with X:\windows\system32\cmd.exe - startnet.cmd
    and in the box waiting for ODD vacancies...

    You can add several points after that as nothing is more - so three sets of recovery disks on three different brands of DVD any advice would be pleaseing!

    Brian

    Hello

    According to your description, the system restore procedure does not start, and the STRANGE can not read the disc.

    In your case I would recommend recover laptop using Toshiba HDD recovery.
    You can start the procedure of HARD drive; Press F8, choose repair my computer, Toshiba HDD recovery.
    Now the system restore should products

    After the laptop has been set to factory settings, check to see if there is an update of firmware for this CURIOUS (CD/DVD drive). If yes-> update the firmware.
    I know you tried three different brands of DVD but you should always try to create a recovery disk using another DVD disc I m using TDK DVD-R and had good experience with it. One of my friends uses Verbatim DVD-R and never had problems

    For optimal compatibility, stop the compatibility level of the virtual hardware, virtual machine to the latest version and ensure that VMware Tools are up to date.

    Hi mprogers,

    Your installation has 3 retina displays, could you pls try the solution on this poster 5 update VMWare Fusion 7 / 3 displays not supported? to see if that helps?

    If not, pls attach your Jeff/Users / / Library/Logs/VMware Fusion/vmware - vmfusion.log and vmware.log inside your virtual bundle machine. Thanks in advance.

    BTW, if your guest operating system is windows 10, the unit may not work as a known bug.

    So tonight, I created an image of the system as I upgrade my hard drive then created a system repair disc and when I boot from the CD, it comes back indicating that the version of this repair disc is not compatible with windows installed even if the original drive has been deleted?

    Running Win7 Pro, SP1 new drive is a WD Black edition.

    Now!  I must inform you that I tried to upgrade to Windows 10 earlier this week and when it starts, he returned with an error xoxox and returned to Win7 but not the point of restoration I created before moving to 10 and the only way that I get using my system repair disc/image I created a week earlier weird!

    But this should not affect my image and the disc I created tonight, correct?

    Thanks for the help

    I have not installed Norton bloatware.  The easiest methods for backup are discussed in clean reinstall Windows Upgrade 10.
