• installation of vmware workstation 6.5 on windows 10 error

  After you install vmware workstation 6.5 on windows 10 it gets error and restart. Is vmware workstation 6.5 support windows 10? FAILED TO INSTALL. vmware workstation 6.5 on windows 8, 8.1 and 10 support. ALL SUPPORT. I still don't understand...

  VMware Workstation 6.x do not support Windows 10 and will never support Windows 10.

  VMware Workstation 6.x reached "end of support" four years, October 1, 2011: Matrix.pdf product lifecycle

  We produce updates for release until its date of "end of support".  A product may not work properly with host OSes, processors or comments OSes that are not compatible with the product, especially the things that have been published after the date of "end of support".  We put a huge amount of effort to ensure that new hardware and operating systems works with each new major release of VMware Workstation, but we cannot go back and update any previous version of product to add support for all hardware and operating systems more recent.  If we tried to do this, VMware Workstation cost much more that it is today, simply because of the amount of work required to maintain!

  You need to upgrade your installation of VMware Workstation to something more recent, or downgrade your host operating system to a version compatible with VMware Workstation 6.5.

  I hope this helps!

• VMware Workstation 11 crashes after installing VMware tools

  As the title suggests, VMware Workstation 11 crashes after installing VMware Tools with a guest Windows 7 x 64. I am running VMware on a host Windows 7 x 64. It happens every time I try to install the guest operating system. Attached to this post are all the newspapers that I could find that I thought would help solve the problem.

  
  

  Thank you

  As you may already know, VMware has just released a major update for 11 workstation (including VMware tools updated). Workstation now works almost perfectly. I don't have accidents since then. This means that I have was right in my post above. This is indeed nothing more than a BETA version of VMware buggy, lazy, masked as a "final". Wow, it looks like that a respectable company like this would not resort to such unethical practices. I mean that you would expect this kind of crap of a company like Electronic Arts, but VMware? Come on guys, you're better than this!

• Installation of VMWare Workstation 11.1.0 on Win 8.1 is THAT MSI will fail with the error "could not write value vmware - tray.exe for \software\microsoft\windows'currentversion\run-cles.

  Hi all

  The MSI failed with the error message as "could not write value vmware - tray.exe in \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows'CurrentVersion\Run key.  Make sure you have fufficient access to that key, or contact your support staff' while trying to install vmware workstation 11.1.0 in windows 8.1.
  I tried to call the installer with run as administrator but it does not help, please suggest me overcome this error.

  Hi Vincentand welcome to the VMware communities!

  This error indicates that you have some security software (antivirus or antimalware software) that protects the part of the registry.  Can you try to temporarily disable all security software on your host computer and see if the installation can move forward?

  See you soon,.

• (Beginner) of the initial steps for the new installation of vmware workstation & guest os

  Hi, very new for the virtual machine. I need help on what type of software (vmware), need and the first steps of the installation.

  Current configuration: a portable 3 separate HD, 1 computer = Windows 7, 2 = XP, 3 is Linux RH. I have manually swap HD to work on each operating system.

  Req: A laptop with Windows 7 as main OS and two other OS (XP and Linux) Guest.

  (1) I prefer not to install OS and the entire application again for the guest operating system (XP and linux), will like to convert, copy, etc.

  (2) can I install multiple OS (XP) for testing of applications and then delete them?

  (3) can I use a different version of an application in a guest operating system?

  The software that I need to buy:

  VMware workstation 7.1

  Version of the converted VMware?  (this may be free, I think)

  ThinApp 4. ???

  If these are vmware software that I need is a step by step installation, in particular of the convert.

  Thank you, ralph

  Hi Raoul,.

  Welcome to the forums.

  VMware vCenter Converter Standalone is a free download that is accessible to everyone, so you can use it to convert your existing machines.

  For testing purposes, you can create a virtual machine "or" with all standard applications, and then use the function 'linked-clone"of the workstation. In this way, you can have several machines quickly with the same basic configuration to test different applications.

  It is more complicated to have multiple versions of the same application in a single virtual machine. ThinApp seems to be the solution, but it should require the application packages (I have no experience with ThinApp) construction. It's a bit complicated just to test. Way the easiest would be to create a new virtual machine for each version of the application.

  Workstation and the converter are very easy to install if you use a standard configuration.

  Good luck.

• Any Installation of Vmware Workstation failed in my machine, why? See the details

  

  Hey guys, I'm trying to install vmware workstation 11,10 even though 9, but unfortunately it shows this kind of error every time.

  then I try to install from appdata/local/temp, but it shows the error of capture4... I tried many things to fix this... but I failed...

  So guys help me please install... sorely lacking...

  is my laptop config: core i5 - 3230M, ram - 4 GB os-win7 64 bit sp1...

  need help please...

  Welcome to the community,

  the problem is probably caused by the apostrophe in the name of the folder of the user. Try at each logon with a different user (temporary) account, or change the temp/tmp environment variable to point to a different directory (existing), for example, "C:\TEMP".

  I have tried of course updated everything. yum update is ok, so I'm a bit with no idea.

  So, did you ever find this problem?

  • Fedora is not a host for VMware Workstation/Player-supported operating system.  Note that although not officially supported as a host nevertheless operating system I run it under Fedora 20, but with the stock kernel.
  • I do not think that the 3.13.4 kernel is still supported, even on a supported host OSes.
  • Take a look at: VMware modules & core 3.13

• Installation of VMWare Workstation 11 freezes with gray screen!

  Hello

  I know this is a very known issue, but difficult to solve, I can't install VMWare Workstation V11 (tried with the old version 8, the same) since as soon as I click Setup, I have a gray screen and installation seems suspended it.

  Tried the same thing with VMWare Player, same result, even with older versions...

  No way to close the gray screen, unless you kill the process.

  My case is laptop Thinkpad T510, native W7 64-bit, processor Intel i5, 4 GB ram, Java utility installed and 100% updated, Nvidia GPU, nothing strange.

  Microsoft Security essential only running, no other AV or firewall...

  I tried to save two files reading autour on this community, but this does not solve the problem.

  I see not what is a well known problem and it is absurd does not have a way to solve it on VMWare...

  Any help is very appreciated!

  Thank you very much

• Installation of VMware workstation in a machine with vmware server 2.0 is already installed?

  is it possible to install the latest version of vmware workstation (I guess that's 6.5) in a machine where vmware server 2.0 is already installed? where possible there at - it something I should know before installing vmware workstation (eg. problems known, network suspends etc.)? in particual I am a little concerned network mangement (eg. both vmware server and vmware workstation in fact add virtaul adapters: is a possible trouble caouse?). The host of the virtual machine is vista ultimate x 64 with 8gig of ram and a quad core cpu.

  I did a little research, and from what I understand, this was not possible with vmware server 1.0 x.. as the situation has changed with vmware server 2.0?

  (in case you are wondering why I sholud be willing to do):

  I worked with vm ware Server 2.0 for about a year, but now I miss some of the features that are only present in vmware workstation: multiple snapshot and clone VM vm ware server... However is much more flexible when you don't have physical access to your VM host... so I was wondering if it is possible to get the best of both worlds : I would like to use vm ware workstation allows you to configure virtual machines and manage snapshots and vmware server to remotely manage virtual machines, I've created with workstation. Is it not possible?

  Thanks in advance for your attention

  We discussed some time ago

• The upgrade from VMware Workstation 12: can I install above?

  So I just bought a license to upgrade to workstation 12. Now, I noticed that it is (finally) 64-bit native. However, 11 Workstation is native 32-bit. Can I just install VMware Workstation 12 top like I did the upgrade from 10 to 11? Because the 10 and 11 were native 32-bit.

  The question is moot.
  Upgrade has always meant uninstall the old version, install the new version.
  If you do it yourself, you have more control, but the results will be the same.

  The safest option is: uninstall manually - reboot - check registry for services that have not been removed - if necessary, repair registry - restarts again and then install the new version right after the restart.

• VMware Player 5 can not install on Win XP feedback tools

  I have VMware player 5.0.0 build-812388 running on Ubuntu 11.10 (core 3.0.0 - 26-generic). I use it to run a Windows XP Professional SP3 client.

  I used to have the VMware tools installed on this prompt, but after a recent update (I don't know which), I noticed that I was getting warning dialog boxes on my graphical configuration. I uninstalled VMware tools (via Add/Remove Programs) and reinstalled (via the player's Virtual Machine > install VMware Tools...), but it does not appear to be installed. There is no VMware Tools applet in the control panel and no icon in the status bar. I have tried different combinations of uninstall, reboot, reinstall, repair, etc., but he is still missing.

  How can I properly install VMware Tools in the virtual machine again?

  VMware has removed the applet of the control panel and system Notification in VMware Player 5 and VMware Workstation 9 icon so that you see is normal and expected.  Some features of VMware Tools are available in the configurations of the Virtual Machine on the host side.

  How can I properly install VMware Tools in the virtual machine again?

  If you have already uninstalled/reinstalled you don't need to do anything.  If you can drag and drop files between the computers in office then VMware Tools are installed and working.  Also if the unit and the VMware shared folders work (for supported operating systems) once again here are the signs that VMware Tools are installed and working.
