• 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.

• 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

  Peter

  Ran Windows Update Troubleshooter

  It fixed a number of things

  I could then install VMware Workstation

  No idea but why the installer got himself in this State

  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 on Windows 7 64 bit

  I recently had to completely reinstall the operating system on a Dell Dimension 9200 with 4 GB of ram. There were originally 32-bit Vista installed by Dell. VMWare Workstation has worked well. I upgraded (in place) for Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit and VMWare continued to work. Recently I had to blow the OS and reinstall. I reinstalled with Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit and now I can not install VMWare Workstation Version 7.1.1. I also tried an older version with the same problem.

  I get the UAC prompt and then after some disk activity I get the Microsoft saying "VMWare Workstation has stopped working" giving options (found nothing) solution, close or debug dialog. I tried without UAC turned and no firewall with the same question.

  Any ideas on how I can find this?

  Pete

  Because I had to reinstall the OS, I went to 64-bit, because I have a few apps I need to write 64-bit to 64-bit (Server 2008 R2) that applications servers

  You can run 32-bit Wokstation.  Still, you can virtualize a VM 64 bit on 32-bit workstation.  So do your apps in the virtual machine.

• Cannot install vmware workstation 7!

  Hello

  I'm not able to install the vmware workstation 7, I already workstation 6.5 installed on my machine, when I tried to install vmware 7, she didn't, so I tried to uninstall vmware 6.5 using Add/Remove programs and tried to install vmware 7 but once again, it failed with the error message. I have attached the error message. I try to install on windows vista Home premium 32-bit edition.

  Also provide the installation/upgrade guide to level and correct uninstall for vmware, I met this kind of mistakes several times. It's weird that I cannot change the registry of vmware, even as an administrator.

  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):

  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 10 said installing VMware detected!

  First of all, I uninstalled preinstalled VMware 10 manually before the error MSI, in any case, I want to reinstall it, but I had "running process detected" error when you try to install the Setup EXE, but I uninstall all services, can someone tell me a solution please?

  
  

  Thanks in advance!

  
  

  Kind regards

  ADDAS

  Welcome to the community,

  can you confirm that you do not rename the installation package for example "vmware.exe? In this case, rename it to something else and restart the installation.

  If this does not help, you may need to manually remove the old components (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1308)

• Cannot install VMware Workstation 6.5.3 on Fedora 11

  I had VMware 6.5.2 installed before that I uninstalled before installing the new version.

  I downloaded the 6.5.3 rpm and checked the checksum. That is how installation (rpm - ivh) goes to:

  Installation of VMware install 1.0
  Copying files...
  Configuration of...
  Installation of VMware Player 2.5.3
  Copying files...
  Configuration of...
  Installation of VMware VIX API 1.6.3
  Copying files...
  Configuration of...
  Installation of VMware Player 2.5.3
  Copying files...
  Configuration of...
  Installation of VMware Player 2.5.3
  Copying files...
  Configuration of...

  It does nothing after this point.

  When I tried to install it from the GUI, it seemed to complete the installation, but there is no vmware executables.

  Follow the instructions in this thread:

  http://communities.VMware.com/thread/227575

  This sequence has worked for me:

  "I don't think that the time is all that critical, at least on the beginning

  side. I installed the RPM. When the RPM installation ends, the VMware

  Setup starts. When you are prompted to accept the EULA

  / etc/VMware/Database already exists. You can move at this time,

  then accept the EULA, and everything goes normally. When the VMware

  Setup is finished, replace the database file. Everything seems

  work after this. »

• Cannot install VMWare Player, workstation or anything like that

  All appear to be the same way with a message like:

  

  However I've checked that the file exists and that I can access. What is the problem?

  I had VMWare Player 6.0.5 and could not install/update VMWare tools. So, I suspended my operating system prompted and rebooted VMPlayer. He told me that there is a new VMWare Workstation something 10.x and I wanted to upgrade to it. Okay, of course. Downloaded the update and tried to install. Said to uninstall VMWare Player 6.0.5. Being suspicious, I went and downloaded VMWPlayer 6.0.5 where he screwed up the installation of Workstation 10.0. Of course, he did. So I tried to install Player 6.0.5 so I could return to my suspended VM. In my opinion, what he said that I could not install because I haven't restarted. So I rebooted. Now, I can't install Player 6.0.5 or Workstation 10.0.0 or whatever it is. They all fail on the same way saying the cannot find a .msi file I can find and access.

  Help!

  BTW, you guys have far too much product and names making it confusing. What should I use? Player? Workstation? Spear? vCenter, Fusion. The list goes on and. Do not try to give me the list of "well it's for this reason and this other thing". The point is there are too many products and it is too complicated. If you want to tell me what the structure of the product is just limit it to the product I should use. I have a Windows 7 box and you want to run Ubuntu in a VM desktop - that's all...

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Please note that this is a forum for peer support and therefore, it is mainly users of VMware help other VMware users who make up the bulk of this forum. It is VMware employees responding in time in time, but in your case here (Note: VMware employees are recognizable because they have a small 'vm' next to their name logo)

  With regard to your current number. If you install VMware Workstation, then you have also installed VMware Player next.

  Even after the expiry of VMware Workstation, you can continue to use the free VMware Player.

  Hope this helps,

• Cannot install VMware trial

  1 d 29 to go down.

  I had this program previously installed on this computer there are many moons.

  My boyfriend did. I guess that he has used his account.

  I was running one day out of HD space, and I deleted it. I just had to dexter season 6 or something equally ridiculous. Anyway, here I try to reinstall it. I've tried everything I can find on this and other forums to help me accomplish this noble seeming goal of simple software installation.

  I have:

  run the CMD in admin

  clean the temp folder

  / cleaning

  / z 'action '=' install '.

  I've even tried some registry fixes

  I tried to restart the computer when my 1920 error appears

  then I do not have admin privileges

  Sometimes I get one of 100 MSI errors when installing it

  Sometimes the error 1920

  If I managed to get the delivery of the program, I can't enter my key

  I don't have administrator rights.

  so. suggestions more?

  Ive also thought services and approval one seems to be broken

  I am the admin, I've always been, I'll always be

  I'm not going to re-enter the regedit.

  THX if you can help

  Sorry for the sarcasm - its been a long not being able to install a program

  FYI - user interface use to run a Linux to WIN 7 Ultimate

  Linux will not boot from the startup disk and I would use my WIFI of Hawkins range extender

  You need to completely uninstall Avast AntiVirus in order to get VMware Workstation to install.  This has been a problem of late and seems to be the only solution when current Avast products are installed.  After installing VMware Workstation (or reader) , you can reinstall Avast.

  While you're there you have to file a complaint with Avast for not having a way to allow a legitimate products, such as VMware, products are to be installed without the complete removal of the product Avast!

• Problem installing VMWare Workstation on a Server Windows 2012

  Hello

  I have problems when trying to install VMWare Workstation on a Server Windows 2012. Windows Server is Amazon EC2 environment and a generic image extended release.

  The problem is that the installtion process fails because of "Hyper-V" during installation, but after investigating the option "Remove roles and features" I can see that it is not installed.

  Is there any fixes for this issue?

  I enclose three screenshots for you pleasure.

  Regards, Ray...

  Hello Ray,

  Welcome to the VMware community forums.

  You run an EC2 instance that has just 615 MB memory installed?

  It's kind of a weird for a host, much too low for Amazon memory configuration, even be profitable.

  I think that your server is running UNDER Hyper-V, for example. It is probably a Virtual Machine.

  You can easily check that yourself by running the script from this site:

  How Hyper-V to: detect if you are inside a virtual machine

  If it's a Hyper-V virtual computer then I don't think you can install VMware Workstation on the virtual machine and run the nested clients.

  You could do the opposite (invited running hyper-V in a workstation virtualized on vSphere) but is not very fast.

  As you have no control over which platform virtualization Amazon use for their windows servers, I'm afraid you will have to go for a dedicated server instead of a virtual machine.

  Hope this helps,

• Questions to install VMware Workstation

  Hello everyone and thank you for your interest in my post.  For the last 6 months I spent reviewing messages to build and run a secure Channel 5 on a laboratory at home and collected a lot of information.  Budget delays I am not near my goal I thought I'd be so I thought I would get something on my current equipment with VMware Workstation.

  I got a 64 bit Windows 7 with Intel I7 processor gaming computer and wanted to add Workstation 8 or 9 now that it is out.  Finally, I would like to build some virtual labs, but now want to get running in the virtual world.

  Help for the following questions would be appreciated.

  1 install Workstation 8 on a Windows 7 64 bit computer or do a clean install on the computer and run a Windows 7 as a virtual machine?

  If a clean install Workstation 8 or 9 is recommended how could I get my image of Windows 7 today converted to a virtual machine before the clean install?

  Guess the question would be, is I there a VM tool that can convert an image of current computer hardware in a virtual machine so that I can run on a new installation of VMware Workstation 9?

  2. what steps should be taken to migrate from a hardware configuration to a configuration of the VM on the same box?

  3. what risks are there to lose data?

  4. what license issued or limitations can I exect meet when I create several virtual machines, alias windows, Linux and others?  Can you build and run several different VMS at the same time?

  5. return to the VM tools, I know on the side of Vsphere there are tools to create virtual machines for ESXi, but what tools are there for Workstation 8 or 9 build and run virtual machines?

  That ye may know that my training and the ability to understand your answers I was in the field of information technology since 1990.  Currently, I am a network engineer and have experience as a non-virtuelle system administrator installs computer and server and operation.

  Thanks again to all who help out.  I hope that once I get the speed I can contribute to the community as well.

  David

  Since you are a "Network Engineer and have experience as a system administrator" then IMO shouldn't really ask!   How hard is it to type 'physical to virtual' in Google and get to VMware vCenter Converter?  Also read the documentation on it as well as VMware Workstation!   Yes I know you said "on non-virtuelle installs computer and server and operation" however do practically is fundamentally not different then do it physically, although with virtualization, there are additional methods that can be used, as using an ISO Image vs optical media to install from, etc.  Seriously with your course, you should be able to install VMware Workstation, browse and examine the different menu commands and create VM almost without having to read the documentation however takes the time to at least he skim initially and then jump in.    As a tip activate everything installs Windows without first installing VMware Tools, if you plan to install VMware Tools in the virtual machine, and wait until you are sure that you have configured as you want, and then select as appropriate.

  One thing you'll need to do if you are using the latest version of VMware vCenter Converter you will need to select the correct mass storage controller as you walk through the wizard because it is by default in the IDE and you want LSI SAS with Windows 7.
