• 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!

• Installation of VMware in VMware Player tools

  Hello

  I installed VMware Player v7, created a virtual machine (Windows) and wanted to install the VMware Tools via Player > manage > install VMware Tools... but nothing happens when I click on this option. The following 2 other methods I found in a Ko do not work either:

  • Enter D:\setup.exe where D: is the first CD-ROM drive configured for your virtual computer = > NOK as the virtual drive does not show the VMware tools.
  • Looking for the ISO file in the installation folder = > NOK: there is no ISO file.

  After searching on the forum, I realized that VMware Player doesn't come with VMware tools and workaround I used was to install VMware Workstation without a license on another computer, find the file "windows.iso", copy it to the computer, mount it as a virtual drive and start the client installation.

  The thing I don't understand is the reason for which the option is available in the VMware Player menu if the VMware tools are not? It's very confusing for people new to VMware and only install VMware Player...

  You need not download VMware workstation to get VMware Tools in VMware Player!  VMware Player 7 is working fine on my system and had no problem downloading VMware tools, so maybe it's a problem specific to your environment/system that may block recovery.

  Take a look at my answer: Re: VMware Tools missing in the Installation of VMware Player 7

• Satellite A660 - 11 M WLan cannot be used after the installation of vmware 3.1.1

  I have a problem with my new laptop Satellite A660 - 11M.

  When I use some VM install VmWare Player 3.1.1 the wireless doesn't work anymore.
  When I push the button to activate the wireless, the led does not illuminate and the FN + F8 key said that the wireless is not enabled.

  I tried to uninstall VMPlayer, but the rest of the problem.
  I also tried to reinstall the Wlan driver.

  Only if I ask a recovery point before the installation of vmWare are all ok.
  You have an idea about the problem?

  Thank you

• Selection of the method of Installation of VMWare Fusion 7

  So I take an edx online course: Introduction to computer CS50x. I am following the installation of VMware Fusion instructions found at the following link: https://manual.cs50.net/appliance/2014/fusion/

  I followed the instructions in step #4: I double click the icon of VMware Fusion. I clicked on 'Open' when prompted. I typed my administrative password. I accepted the license agreement. I inserted the license key. I am now in the window "select the installation method. But herein is the problem. I do not know what installation method to choose, and there are no instructions on it. My options are: (1) import of disk or image; (2) import existing PC; (3) install OS X from the recovery partition; (4) import a virtual machine existing; (5) installation of Boot Camp. and (6) create a custom virtual machine.  There are no instructions or advice to navigate through these options.

  Assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  From what you have posted, it seems to me that the merger has been successfully installed. The dialog box "Select installation method" you see is Fusion trying to be helpful and you guide in the creation of your first virtual machine.

  At this stage of VMware Fusion and eject the mounted disk installation image (so that you do not open the installation program when you must open the copy installed on your disk). Continue to step 5 to download your virtual appliance of the format .ova.

• VMware Tools missing in the Installation of VMware Player 7

  Hi all

  If I try to install/upgrade to update VMware Tools after the Installation of VMware Player 7 no ISO will be connected to the virtual machine.

  I checked the directory of Installation of VMware Player for the ISOs of the tools but no ISOs are there.

  Can you help me out of this Situation or is it a missing element in the installer?

  I just downloaded VMware-player - 7.0.0 - 2305329.exe and installed under Windows 7 x 64 and had no problems with it automatically detect installed VMware Tools to the guest operating system to be downloaded and successfully downloaded.  Having said that, have you tried? : Player > file > Preferences... > download now all components

  Maybe something is blocking you to download the VMware tools.

  You could also do it manually by using the following tools from VMware for VMware Player 7.0.0.

  • Tools-freebsd - 9.9.0.exe.tar
  • Tools-linux - 9.9.0.exe.tar
  • Tools-netware - 9.9.0.exe.tar
  • Tools-solaris - 9.9.0.exe.tar
  • Tools-winPre2k - 9.9.0.exe.tar
  • tools-windows - 9.9.0.exe.tar

  Unzip the file, then run the executable result and it will silently install the file without any indication that he actually did like this isn't really so planned how to do even if it works!

• 11i/R12 connection at the base of the machine during the Installation of VMWare host.

  Hello people,
  
  I installed 11i and R12 on VMWare. My host in Windows XP operating system.
  
  11i details-
  VMWare/Guest OS - Windows XP
  Version - 11.5.10.2
  
  R12 Details-
  VMWare/Guest OS - Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3
  Version - 12.1.1
  
  Everything works fine on the VMWare OS application and database (sqlplus).
  
  The problem is that I am not able to connect to the data base (11i/R12) from the host machine. I am successfully able to run the application from the host machine after you put the entry in the file "hosts".
  
  To connect to the database, I have installed the Oracle 9i on the host machine client and put the entry in the TNSNAMES file. ORA generated by 11i/R12, but even in doing so I am not able to connect to the database.
  
  Is there a way I can connect to the database (installed on VMWARE) of the HOST Machine.
  
  I've seen a single installation on VMWARE, where we are able to connect to the database from the HOST machine.

• 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

  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,.

  • 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

• Failed installation of VMware Workstation 9 on new install of win 7

  I looked at the discussion of installation has failed VMware Workstation 9, verified that I am administrator, cleaned folder and looked at the registry and I'm still having problems.  The name of the account used is not Admin/Admin or anything close.

  This is a new installation today of windows 7 with all updates applied.  Avast is my anti-virus software.  The behavior does not change with it running or disabled.

  I think that the problem to be that KLM/Sofware/VMware Inc. does not appear.  I checked that I can create keys.

  "In my installs I've seen: message" failure of the MSI MSI "and once"the MSI MSI failed. "  Authorization of VMware (VMAuthService) failed to start service.

  Here are the logs from my last install.

  Can someone provide me with more information about the problem and how to get this installed?

  Thank you

  Finally got this resolved after many setup logs sent to VMware.  I came across the registry problems and VMAuthdServices fail to start due to software AV.

  In short, following http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1031302 (KB1031302) is important as well as some comments from howellrj.  Here's what I did in detail and why during my various tests of installation:

  http://KB.VMware.com/kb/1031302

  1 I used the only account on the system, which did not have a name as owner, admin, administrator, which has administrator privileges

  2 wiped % TEMP % whenever I made an attempt to install

  3 MS KB 942288 not recommended for Win7 so I jumped

  4 no earlier version of VMware Workstation has been installed on the system, so I jumped

  5 ran http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2438651/en-us (MS KB2438651) whenever I made an attempt to install.  He has never found anything wrong

  6 was not running WinXP so I jumped

  7 has made run msconfig to disable all services and should follow https://support3.avast.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=1334 (Avast KB1334) to disable Avast self protection mode.  Even with Avast protection auto mode disabled and all the disabled Avast shields were always running and prevent.  The only way to clear the checkpoint was to remove Avast completely.

  8 I ran sfc/scannow before each installation to be sure.  No problems have ever been found.

  So, here is what I did to get the software installed successfully:

  An item copied to my system

  1 AV Installer on my system

  2 use FixIt of MS KB 2438651

  Disconnected the network B

  C restart the system with network not connected

  D removed Avast

  E to restart the system with network not connected

  1 erase TEMP

  2 Ran FixIt utility of MS KB 2438651

  3 ran sfc/scannow

  F install VMware Workstation

  G restart the system

  H check VMware Workstation starts

  I install Avast

  J stop the system

  K connecting to the network

  L reboot the system with connected network

  M update Avast

  N reconfigure Avast

• (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.

• installation of windows, windows 2003 in vmware on xp host workstation

  Hello evrybdy,.

  I want to install windows 2003 as a virtual machine on my xp (on desktop) host

  so please tell me

  1. the latest version of vmware workstation, how to get free or evealvation version

  2. how to install it on xp host

  3. installation of windows 2003 as a virtual machine in vmware workstation

  The last Workstation Version is 6.5, but you can't get it for free. Another possibility, use VMware Server - it's free. Simply register to get a license key and download and install from the configuration file.

  Kind regards
