VMWare Tools does not

• VMware Tools does not update...

  Hello! I got this message when I tried to update my VMware Tools: "there was a problem updating a software component. Try again later and if the problem persists, contact your system administrator or the VMware Support. "What can I do to fix this?

  To add to what Andrew said... Download and unzip the Tools-windows - 9.2.2.exe.tar on the host and then run the file tools-windows - 9.2.2.exe on the host.  He then silently retrieves and installs files windows.iso and windows.iso.sig to VMware players Working Directory.  Then just try to install VMware Tools normally by selecting install VMware Tools in the Virtual Machine menu.  If this does not work then you will need to manually assign the ISO Image to VMware Tools (windows.iso) on CD/DVD to the virtual computer and then install from in the guest operating system by running setup.exe from the CD/DVD drive.

• need a script to find vmware tools does not not on virtual machines

  I need a script to find the virtual machines running without vmware tools?

  Hello, nareshunik-

  You can add an extra point to the filter to include only the virtual machines that are on, as:

  ## get names of powered-on VMs that either do not have Tools installed, or on which Tools are not currently runningGet-View -ViewType VirtualMachine -Property Name, Guest.ToolsStatus -Filter @{"Guest.ToolsStatus" = "toolsNotInstalled|toolsNotRunning"; "Runtime.PowerState" = "PoweredOn"} | Select Name, @{n="ToolsStatus"; e={$_.Guest.ToolsStatus}}

• VI customer reports VMware Tools 'does not work '.

  Hello people,

  It becomes very annoying. He started to arrive since I upgrade ESX server with U2, U3 and Vcenter Server of U3 U4.

  The problem is: from time to time, VI client, the State of the VMware Tools on different virtual machines (distributed on both ESX hosts) indicates "does not work". Can I open a session on the VMS, restart the VMware Tools service, then VI Client displays "ok". I wonder what causes this problem and ready to solve this problem.

  I apprecaite your help.

  Thank you.

  Before running VMware Tools for the first time, you must

  Configure it to your kernel running on the

  following command: "/ usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl".

  Config tools... He'll try to compile tools for your kernel, make sure you have the kernel and GCC installed headers.  If the compilation fails, there should be a build any - any for the "vmware tools" somewhere on this site...

  What should I do?

  Looking at your mistakes, you seem to have an earlier version of the tools which are not uninstaled or tools are coming from another source when the installation program checks the files are already claimed. I first uninstall everything that claims these files and possibly clean/regen your db packace if necessary. Then, reinstall the tools and see if you still get errors with no alert clobber.

• (XP): cure for Add Remove Programs tool does not, error msg: "DllRegisterServer entry point was not found.

  met the following error message:

  How can I fix above error message?
  -Alan.

  Hi Alan,

  ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  ·         Are you referring to an article in Microsoft?

  Follow these methods.

  Method 1: Follow the following steps:

  (a) click on Start, run, type cmd and press enter.

  (b) in the command prompt, run these commands:

  regsvr32 Jscript.dll

  regsvr32 Msi.dll

  regsvr32 Oledb32.dll.

  regsvr32 Msado15.dll.

  regsvr32 Mshtmled.dll

  Method 2: Scan the file system (CFS) auditor to repair corrupted files.

  Method 3: Performs a search using the Microsoft safety scanner.

  Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

• The cutting tool does not work after windows updates.

  I read answers to similar questions about the failure of the cutting tool.  I use the tool cutting regularly and I think it's a fantastic tool in Windows. I have Vista Ultimate and all my windows updates have managed: none were not installed correctly, and I did not install new programs or hardware.  It seems that Microsoft knows the snipping tool does not - why can't they simply provide an update patch to correct the problem, rather than make us do all the work.  I don't have to go through hoops of restorations etc to get something it seems work was broken by updates.  I'm about to go to a Mac.

  It worked for me! Thank you!

  If you have
  one of the following AV, antivirus, programs installed, it will stop your
  Windows Defender. Purpose of these AVs have their own advocates. 2 defenders
  on the same machine will create conflicts.
  Bottom line: it's ok.
  It's normal.
  List of AVs which will stop Windows Defender

  Norton
  McAfee
  AVG
  Microsoft Security
  Essentials

  If you do not have the
  above AV programs, here's how to do to restart Windows Defender:

  Start button > in the search box, type Services > press the Enter key > scroll to find Windows Defender, click on it >...
  topic status , it must be said... Has begun
  under Startup Type, it must be said... Automatic
  If it does not say that, right click on Windows
  Defender > click Properties > to
  Startup type, click on the pointer to the right and select automatic
  to the service status, click Start
  Click OK when finished.

• Print screen with Snipping Tool does not.

  Print screen or capture tool work.  They worked very well in the past, but now neither one works.  Back to zero does not solve the problem.

  Screenshot doesn't seem to do anything in the copy buffer because even if the block occurs, nothing sticks in.

  Snipping Tool just shows a black with a red around him border screen, instead of the actual screen shot (no matter the option I select IE free Style or whole screen, etc.), I have Vista Home Premium with all service packs.

  Thank you

  This should be the final resolution to my problem of Snipping Tool/print screen:

  1. I downloaded and ran the Malwarebytes program as recommended.  And BTW, I don't see this recommendation here.  I'm fairly new participant in Forums, so maybe there's a reason that I see here this recommendation I don't know.  The Malwarebytes has really done his job and even if I run MS Essentials program found Malwarebytes 25 hits of Mal-ware on this PC.  Once I have it fixes these problems, the symptoms of my problem of Snipping Tools became less consistent.

  If Malwarebytes fixed part of the problem with the Snipping incroyables.* *.

  2 but the final resolution is that it turns out that there is that one Internet site where the tool captures will not work and it is my Bank.  I know that my Bank suggested I run a program called safety report.  It's my theory that is my bank site or report has something programmed into it that prevents screen either with the tool to capture and print screen captures.  If I go into my bank site with Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox, the Snipping Tool will not work.  However, the Snipping Tool works everywhere else.  It's all the other websites and in other programs.

  The Snipping Tool does not work on my banking site (probably because of the REPORT) and maybe it will not work on other sites closely to secure *.

  Thank you very much for the help.

• Problem of the eclipse - signing tool does not

  Hello

  The Signature tool does not load in my copy of eclipse. I'm running the beta version 7 in Eclipse Helios. When I select 'sign with Signature tool... ". "in the menu, nothing happens. The only chance I have is to try to 'All together', but that works only intermittently.

  Any ideas?

  I had the same problem: you need to select your project in the Project Explorer, and then right-click, select Blackberry--> sign with signature tool...

• "The cutting tool does not work on your computer right now. Restart etc. "comes when I select the Snipping Tool icon.

  Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

  If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

  -

  You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

  -

  Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

  `

  When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

  I hope this helps. Good luck.
