• Installation of VMware Tools default Chinese

  Hi, I've migrated just a Windows XP computer in a virtual machine on merger 4.1.

  Works fine, except that when I try to uninstall software that is no longer needed by using the Windows Add/Remove programs of standard tool, all dialogs are in Chinese. This happens for some software to uninstall, but not others.

  I guess I blame that on the individual software programs, except that the dialogues were all in Chinese, also when I tried to install VMware Tools.

  I guessed the meaning of the different choices during the installation, choose 'Typical', and the tools are installed and I restarted Windows.

  Now that dialogue tools boxes are in English, but every time I click the button help in the Tools dialog box, the help files are all in Chinese.

  I found a similar problem posted at http://communities.vmware.com/message/1859046#1859046, where the poster creates an image of Win7 using its installation media rather than through migration of an existing computer. The solution success he had to re - run the installation without using Easy Install. Unfortunately, the migration of VMware tool does not offer me the possibility to use or not using any method of easy installation.

  Someone has seen this before, or have any ideas?

  Thank you

  Have you already checked the language settings in the start menu-> Control Panel - "Regional and Language Options"?

• The Installation of VMWare tools failed. In any case to force the update/install VMWare tools?

  I used to use VMware Workstation 10 and recently upgraded to VMware workstation 11.  However, whenever I try to install a newer version of VMware tools, it will fail with message saying something like "VMware Tools can be installed in the Virtual Machine.

  Yes, I am trying to install VMware Tools within the guest operating system, but I get this notification for all my virtual machines, I'm running.

  I'm under 6 Virtual Machines simultaneously and they run on Windows 7 32 bit OS and configured with 4 GB of RAM, 1CPU, 100GB HD + 5 GB second HD for the swap file, NO printer, no sound card.

  For each virtual machine, I changed about 50 + key of Windows registry and detect the values to hide from all the programs that they are running on the virtual machine.

  I assume due to records, I changed, it confuses VM installer who it is not running on a Virtual Machine.  Then I tried to change all these registers changed to send it back to the original value, yet I is always the same message.

  I must be missing either some registry values or values that I restored is false. But I don't know which is the case.

  I can simply delete all my Virtual Machines and start again with the new virtual machine, but I don't want to repeat this process whenever a newer version of the VM tools out. and installation of windows and search and replace registry values for each virtual computer is full of works.

  So, here is my question.  Anyone know how to force the update / install VM tools in my virtual machine?

  P.S. I added under scripts in the file .vmx for each of the virtual machines.  I don't think it would cause the problem but just in case I include it.

  SVGA.vramsize = 268435456

  monitor_control.restrict_backdoor = "" true ".

  insulation. Tools.getptrlocation.Disable = 'true '.

  insulation. Tools.setptrlocation.Disable = 'true '.

  insulation. Tools.setVersion.Disable = 'true '.

  insulation. Tools.GetVersion.Disable = 'true '.

  monitor_control.disable_directexec = 'true '.

  SMBIOS.reflecthost = 'true '.

  memtrimrate = '0 '.

  mainmem.usenamedfile = "false".

  sched.mem.pshare.Enable = "false".

  prefvmx.userecommendedlockedmemsize = 'true '.

  Tent Installer to get the version information of the hypervisor of underling to see if it is a VM or not.  This is done by contacting by back door.

  Setting monitor_control.restrict_backdoor = "true"prevents communication."

• Installation of vmware tools windows server 2012

  I have to do something special to install vmware tools on a machine virtual windows server 2012, or just run d:\setup?

  Thank you.

  As long as it is the Fusion of 5 or above, just run the installation program.

  If Fusion 4, you may experience problems with the video driver that I don't see if Fusion 4 was never updated to officially support Windows 8 guests. In this case, however, if the only goal is to get something running, be sure to disable the video driver from the VMware Tools installation.

• How to install vmware tools to a group of virtual machin?  or how to install vmware tools image to a group of virtual machin?

  Hi dear all virtualization expert

  are you know or have a solution for this?

  It's important I

  Hello

  You can try something like this...

  In vSphere client, choose display of virtual machines and templates.

  From there create a folder unless you already have one and move the virtual machines in question in this case. (you can also select a host, it must not be a folder).

  In the upper pane, select the virtual machines when you have selected the folder, or the host. You can select more than one virtual machine and right-click-> comments-> installation/upgrade to update VMware tools.

  I hope this helps.

• problem of rookie when installing vmware tools

  I installed VMware Tools successfully, but when I try to configure the real GUI, told me that I must be an administrator to perform tasks. I tried to change (what I thought was root) my login to an administrator and tried to do a su - root in Terminal mode. Order root authentication fails. I tried this in Ubuntu and Fedora when I know that the only created account was the one I use. I have to redo the installation and create the first user "root"? I don't get a sign # in mode Terminal - just the sign $. My main goals are to allow a reader to CD-ROM and full screen.

  Hello, try

  sudo su
  

  instead of su - root

  Hello

  With the help of ESX 4. I need to get the installation packages for the vmware tools for each version of Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008 (x 86 and x 64) and Windows Server 2003 (x 86 and x 64).

  1. where can I get them?

  2 support without monitoring/silent install? I need to add them to an existing deployment routine.

  Thanks in advance!

  All the tools on your ESX host .iso files can be found in

  /vmimages/tools-isoimages/
  

  There is a way to push tools, but part of the upgrade tools are NETWORK card drivers and you can lose some pings or experience of ping times raised the expectations of the customers.

• No automatic installation of VMware Tools after the P2V migration

  I wanted to migrate a Windows XP Machine Workstation 8 and everything worked fine.

  Then I tried to start an application in this virtual machine and it doesn´t work. I made a second migration before tools VMware and the driver installation has been finished, I started the application and it worked. But after installtion it didn t work more.

  I tried to cancel the installation, but that luckily possible.

  My question is: How can I force the virtual machine, that it does not install not the drivers and tools automatically? And how do I install only parts of the drivers and tools?

  Do not turn it on in the first place - or like a rude thing - rename temporarily the windows.iso

  He may be trying to unpack and there unzip in the directory of the cdrom which is read-only.  You can try the following

  CD/tmp

  DF - h. # make sure you have little space in / tmp to decompress the files

  tar - xvzf /media/cdrom/filename.tar.gz

  It should unzip it in a directory called VMWare... somet

  Looks like your way of temp has 2 problems - firstly, it is quite long; Secondly, there is a strange character in.

  Try changing your environment a simple C:\TEMP or C:\Windows\Temp folder variable.

• problems with the installation of vmware esxi 4.0 on pc

  Hello

  I have a pc I am building.

  the motherboard is ASUS P8P67 Deluxe.

  It includes 2 onboard network adapters:

  1 realtek network card.

  1 network adapter intel.

  When I try to install vmware os it shows me an error that:

  "no network compatible adapter found.please don't see hardware compatibility of the product (HCG) guide for a list of the taken addapters supported...".

  Help, please.

  Thank you.

  Ben.

  The easiest way is to get a compatible network card. The "Intel Pro/1000 GT' for example is known as work and is affordable (about $ 30).

• Prevent installation of the vmware tools

  Hello!

  Is it possible to prevent the installation of VMWare tools when creating a new machine in the Workstation 6.5.1?

  I want to test the OS which is absolutely clean and it seems that VMWare tools are installed automatically when you create the virtual OS ISO. This is quite annoying, because after installing the tools is no longer a "clean" image

  As continuum wrote, under normal circumstances, the tools will get installed automaticall if you create a guest (some people like exactly that, and it is often asked here how to achieve this).

  Source of your guests? Are they have cloned, installed costs or...?

  If you found this information useful, please consider awarding points to 'Correct' or 'Useful' responses Thank you!!

• VMware Tools Installation silent...

  Hello

  "Can please tell me command for silent installation of VMWare tools"/s /v /qn REBOOT = R ' no 'typical' installation or install "Full '?" If its 'typical install', is there any command for silent installation available to "complete" install?

  Thank you

  Tamil

  By default, it will do a default install. It uses standard features of Windows Installer, then to install all available components of VMware Tools, use the ADDLOCAL = All option in the command line.
