VMware.exe ignores the "n" If launched with vmrun command line

Hello

I have a process that automatically starts the virtual machines. Subsequently, I wish I could open all of them in separate viewers. As it is, they all get open in different tabs.

* Host - Windows 7

* Vmware workstation 8.0

* Reviews - Windows XP

* Comments - Ubuntu 9.10

The process begins to them through VIX, but I can reproduce the problem with vmrun.exe

Command line to vmware.exe Args are defined here: http://pubs.VMware.com/WS8/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#href=using_ws/GUID-AE43508D-A717-485D-B991-2CB9136E54D7.html

(1) to start the virtual machine

WS t vmrun.exe start C:\pathtomyvms\something.vmx nogui
(2) some time later

VMware.exe - n C:\pathtomyvms\something.vmx

Anyone has an idea as to why n gets ignored?

Thanks for any input.

Well, here are my observations:

1 VMware Workstation GUI closed and seen the target VM tab visible before closing WS and then from VM with vmrun and then starting vmware.exe .vmx - n, its opening WS WS as it has been changed with no window for the target of the VM, but the focus on the target VM tab closed.

2 VMware Workstation GUI closed and to have the target VM tab not visible before closing WS and then from VM with vmrun and then starting WS vmware.exe .vmx - n, it will open WS with the virtual machine in a window of the target itself.

3 VMware Workstation GUI open and have the target VM tab visible from the machine and then virtual vmrun starting WS vmware.exe .vmx - n it open another instance of WS with the goal of the virtual machine in a window by itself.  Note that when the target VM with vmrun starting in this scenario he closed the tab of the target tab of the target VM VM had the focus or not.

Conclusion: Do not - n If scenario 1 is real (target VM open when the last tab closed WS) otherwise it works as advertised with the scenarios 2 and 3.

  • Call a visual basic executable file with arguments command line using LABView

    Hi all

    I try to call a visual basic executable file with a command line using LABView 2014 argument. What I'm trying to accomplish executes an executable file that communicates with a device via a COM port. So, I would open the .exe with a command line argument to communicate via com 3 using the SYSTEM Exec VI. It seems that the command prompt window flashes and closes and then nothing happens. Not a lot of discussions about this on the forum. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    With some programs, instead of passing in the string:

    Somefile.exe

    Instead, you can use:

    cmd /c "C:\Full Path\to the EXE\Somefile.exe"

  • How to set the text to align with their base line, not their bounding box?

  • Why a sound card would be usable in the GUI, but not in mode command line?

    I am able to connect my audio capture card and stream with GUI, but get an error in the command mode line indicating "error: problem with the audio capture device.»  Please check

    the audio capture device works correctly and is not already in use. "I can start several encoding in the GUI sessions using the same card and listen at the same time.

    I was using this card with OUT 3.1 coding as a background service on Server 2003.  3.1 or 3.2 works in command line on

    Windows Server 2008 Standard or another system with 2008 R2 company. This is direct encoding audio only and it occurs using newly registered configuration original\modified profiles. My process: copy FMLECmd.exe and rename, copy saved GUI startup.xml and name to match streamnameCMD.exe, and then use a batch file that launches the streamnameCMD.exe configured by streamname.xml. Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?  FYI, from GUI, I get a popup "not detected no video capture device" because it is not installed and the session doesn't AutoStart so I can't use Exe-to-SVC or AlwaysUp to run it in the background instead of streamnameCMD.exe.

    Thank you very much for your advice!

    I have it.  There is a problem with WMI communication between hardware and software layers, which is solved with the addition of the function of the office experience in Server Manager.

    Once this is installed, with the required file + print feature, sharing the program will recognize the audio card when running as a service and allows multiple instances of encoding using the same card.

  • How Windows to determine which file to run with some command line commands?

    I had someone ask me an interesting question, and I really didn't have a good answer for them.  We were talking about the command prompt.  I showed them how they could start some programs simply by typing a command at the command prompt.  Their question is how is it, some files require a full path to start?  Also how the Windows does not know which file to run when the 'explorer' simple as orders are entered?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi, Deedubbadoo,

    Their question is how is it, some files require a full path to start?

    You can have some files in the same directory that share the same file name but have different extensions. For example, you might have a file named compta.com can launch an accounting program and another called Accnt connects your system to the accounting system network.

    The operating system searches for a file by using default file name extensions in the following order of precedence: .exe, .com, .bat, and. cmd to run Accnt so that compta.com exists in the same directory, you must include the .bat extension in the command line.

    If a component of a path is a file name, it must be the last element

    My HP Pavilion DV9500 laptop started making a few months ago:

    The computer and the programs sometimes simply freeze, sometimes the screen becomes a light pink with diagonal lines dotted, and sometimes the laptop itself restarts without warning.  The computer is about 3 years old now and have not had any problems before this.  I tried to do a clean install of the recovery feature that I don't have a Vista disc to reinstall from, and he always does this.  Sometimes the computer will be fine for a few hours and sometimes just after the start it will freeze.  A couple of times too, as it starts, Windows will not start and it will say "Not found operating system".

    Hello

    It sounds like imminent hardware failure/issues. Since you did a clean installation of recovery
    pretty much excludes most of the causes of software if it could be driver related and there are other
    possible causes remotely. Video/display and its drivers are suspected leader and mother.

    Keep good backups and check with a real store of the computer (not the leeks and glances at a BestBuy, etc.)
    BigBox stores) or the manufacturer of your system Support.

    It's my generic convenience store and eventually it can help you determine the cause but I strongly
