• VMware Workstation 11 crashes after installing VMware tools

  As the title suggests, VMware Workstation 11 crashes after installing VMware Tools with a guest Windows 7 x 64. I am running VMware on a host Windows 7 x 64. It happens every time I try to install the guest operating system. Attached to this post are all the newspapers that I could find that I thought would help solve the problem.

  As you may already know, VMware has just released a major update for 11 workstation (including VMware tools updated). Workstation now works almost perfectly. I don't have accidents since then. This means that I have was right in my post above. This is indeed nothing more than a BETA version of VMware buggy, lazy, masked as a "final". Wow, it looks like that a respectable company like this would not resort to such unethical practices. I mean that you would expect this kind of crap of a company like Electronic Arts, but VMware? Come on guys, you're better than this!

• 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!

• 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,

• VMware Workstation 7.1 on Windows 7 x 64

  Hello

  I installed the new VMware Workstation 7.1 on my x 64 windows 7, before I download there written x 32 - x 64 version but when I start default insstallation installation location was C:\*Program files (x 86) * \VMware, which means application for x 32 bit x 64 No.

  I have Intel E8400 CPU, MB: Maximus formula

  so is - anyone can write any solution about it.

  You should not use the installation folder as the basis for that determination.  Pieces of VMware Workstation are 32-bit while we have x 64 versions for other parts.  We decided that it would be simpler to install all in one place, rather than splitting to the top of the installation on both 'Program Files' and 'Program Files (x 86) ".

  I've just interested in my vmawre runs as x64bit softare or x 32?

  What does "run as software 64-bit" mean?  The user interface is a 32-bit process (vmware.exe), but virtual machines are running in 64-bit processes (vmware - vmx.exe).  The 32-bit process will run as a 32-bit software and 64-bit processes will run as 64 - bit ones.

• VMWare Workstation 6.5.1 & Windows 95 PCI Bridge / peripheral system

  Hello everyone.

  I tried to create a virtual image of Windows 95 in VMWare workstation.  I managed to create one for Win98, WinNT and Win2000.  But I'm having trouble with Win95 (I tried both Win95B and Win95C).

  Installing Windows 95 in VMWare workstation work perfectly fine, but I'm still stuck with an unrecognized hardware...

  In the Windows 95 Device Manager I see:

  Other devices

  |

  +-- ? PCI bridge

  |

  +-- ? System PCI device

  SCSI controllers

  |

  +-- ! Bus PCI SCSI controller

  Network is fine and his card seems to be installed correctly, but I still can't audio.  I'm guessing it's because the devices PCI is not installed correctly.  Anyone can please help / guide me in getting those devices installed correctly.  I tried my luck with google and research here, but no luck so far.

  Thank you very much.  Kind regards

  Willem Moolenaar

  PS. I've attached a screenshot of the Device Manager.

  You have installed VMware tools in this prompt again?  The tools must contain the device drivers for the bridge network, SCSI, PCI devices etc.  For audio, you can download the driver for the Creative Labs site for card SoundBlaster AudioPCI (ES1371).  See the OS Installation Guide invited for specific details.

• How to return to the prompt to confirm my deletion of snapshot in VMware Workstation 7.0.1 (Windows)?

  Hello.

  Somehow, I have accidentally said VMware Workstation 7.0.1 does not prompt/confirm when deleting my image snapshots. How can I get that back then he can confirm my requests? I can't find the option in the program or the answer online.

  Thank you in advance.

  Maybe it's because my new glasses

  However, I see the entry (the 9th bottom). Set to "TRUE" or remove them, it should work.

• VMWare Workstation 8 and/or Windows XP Mode

  Level of experience:: I am an expert on ESXi but know almost nothing on my computer.  I bought 6 Workstation and got a free upgrade to 6.5.  I created a virtual in Windows 2000 Server machine that our accounting is on and the accountant can join.  I just was clicking the shortcut VM since 2008 button to start the virtual machine.  I have heard of the unit, but do not completely understand.  I also know nothing about another XP mode that what I saw in a video online.  I know it is possible to install Workstation and Windows XP Mode, but the two cannot be active at the same time.

  The situation:  I have a new computer Dell laptop, M6600 w/i7 and Windows 7 64 Pro.  My old laptop has XP Pro 32.  I hae a development environment that I use which is 32 bits, but also uses some 16-bit utilities.  They have newer versions of the software, but it is less productive, and the old software generates 32 and 64 bit apps more efficiently, with fewer bugs and run much faster than my Microsoft .NET languages.  So, I maintain about 3 million lines of code in this language.  I have to say to anyone that is trying to maintain current information in two places and never have what it takes with you, so I want to move everything to the new laptop.  I need to be able to P2V and bring in the servers from client to the prototype network changes prior to deployment.  My ESXi boxes are through the VPN, so I need to do on the spot, and my laptop is what I bring to clients.  The new laptop has a quad i7 with 32 GB of RAM, 1 1/4 TB of disk space, consisting of a Crucial M4 512 GB SSD and Seagate Momentus 750, and eSata 3 and 3 USB ports.  Virtual machines will fall under Windows servers, Unix servers, and sometimes ESXi with UNIX VMs, which I know will be slow under the virtualized ESXi.

  Thoughts:  What first reading it sounded like XP Mode would be transparent and that the C drive of the XP Mode is drive C of the host.  I have since read this is not the case, and that it is just a virtual machine with its own virtual hard disk.  I learned that when you install an application in XP Mode, it appears on the menu Windows 7 64 start, and when you launch it, the application is running in a window on the Windows 7 Desktop, almost as if it were a native application in Windows 7.  It would be nice instead of dealing with another office.  Workstation, said it allows to import the virtual machine XP Mode, but can only run one copy at a time.  I thought that disappointment, that I would need to run more than one old app at a time, but then I thought about it, and I guess in XP mode, they are simply short several app out of the virtual machine even with XP Mode also.  If I could get the same behavior integrated 8 workstations that I can with the XP Mode, then I would reflect the OS disk to the new computer on a hot spare, install XP mode copy on the virtual machine, install the original disks, set up 8 Workstation, re-import the virtual hard drive in my computer and delete the virtual hard disk.  Then I wouldn't need to have two virtual environments that cannot play together.

  Issues related to the:
  1 Workstation 8, can I have applications in the menu start of Windows 7 64 embarking inside a virtual machine, without showing the desktop of the guest operating system, like I can with Windows XP Mode?  If the answer is Yes, it runs automatically launch the virtual machine where the app?
  2. If the answer to the point 1 is Yes, it is Windows XP Mode have all the advantages for me who don't Workstation 8?

  Thanks TONS!

  Workstation is not automatically add apps to the start menu of the host, but you can make them yourself.  When the virtual machine is in the mode of the unit, use the launch of the unit menu to navigate the start menu of the guest. Right click on the application shortcut and select 'Create shortcut on the desktop.'  You can also run the application, click its button on the taskbar, and then PIN to the taskbar.  You can then run the application later using these shortcuts, and workstation will start the virtual machine and Unity mode if necessary.

  Build 10074 works!

  So, I did a clean install of the new generation (10074).  Workstation makes easy installation on it.  During the easy setup process, it didn't install VMWare tools, but I see the tools have been installed.  I tried to re-size that the screen with 3D powered acceleration; and it worked!

• How to run VMWARE Workstation 7.1.2 securely on Windows 7?

  Hello

  I downloaded a trial version of vmware workstation 7.1.2 to check, if I could use it to keep a proven windows 2000 on a windows host environment 7.

  When I run a virtual machine, the system tells me, that the "VmWare authorization Service" does not work. When I try to start from the list of services of the Task Manager, I get the error code_6000004.

  On a forum German vmware, I found the advice to disable windows security feature 7 UAC completely. But that has not yet solved the problem I've tried with a non-administrative user account.

  Finally it works, but only in a dangerous way:

  So far, I only managed to run VMWARE 7.1.2 on Windows 7, if I disable UAC AND log in as administrator. Which would be Ok for experiment from time to time, but do not regularly the computer as is - for good reason - not recommended by windows.

  Can someone please give me some adivce on my questions:

  How can I use VMWare Workstation on a host of Windows 7 with an non-administratif account?

  Better would be, how can I use VMWare Workstation as a standard user AND you have UAC on a recommended security level?

  Is disabling the functions of central security in fact the adivce official to run VmWare on a host of Windows 7?

  I know, Windows 7 is quite new and a lot of software has not properly adapted to him so far, but in the meantime, it is still not easy to find an older host OS to be able to correctly use VMWare (on Windows 2000 as a host, it worked great and I do not want to give it up so easy)

  Kind regards

  I just removed the XML that has been added automatically

  I used Vmware Workstation 7.x for Windows 7 without problems so far. I installed the package as an administrator, of course, but then used the user to create and manage virtual machines. I have UAC in default mode and does not get a prompt either do anything.

  The option "Run as Administrator" is just to load an application with administrator credentials already loading in the token to access at the outset and you will get a prompt later, but there should be no difference here.

• Windows 7 64-bit and VMWare Workstation

  Someone had problems with VMWare Workstation 6.5 on Windows 7 64-bit? My computer hangs when creating the virtual machine guests. I have VirtualBox running very stable with Windows 7. I was wondering if anyone has had problems? I think try VMWare Workstation 7.

  Yes, my Dell PC meets all the requirements. I enabled VT, 2-2CoreDuo 3.06 Ghz CPU, 8 GB of RAM, 1 TB SATA, Windows 7 64-bit.

• Snapshot fails on VMWare Workstation 11 Pro

  Hello

  I have created a virtual machine on VMWare Workstation 11 Pro with Windows Server 2008 R2 and baptized "HYP". When I'm trying to take a snapshot, I get the following message:

  VMware Workstation cannot find the virtual disk 'G:\YP.vmdk '. Check that the path is valid and try again.

  The system cannot find the specified file

  Cannot open disk 'G:\HYP-000001.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on.

  Necessary to the VM to suspend operation and the VM could not continue to run.

  After that I click OK in the message box that precedes, the virtual computer turns off and then I can turn it on again - I get the following message:

  File not found: YP.vmdk

  This file is required to power on this virtual machine. If this file has been moved, specify the new location.

  Note that I might be able to on and off this machine virtual without problem before I tried to take the snapshot.

  How is that possible I could have it fixed?

  Thank you very much!

  I found where it was. When I was creating this virtual machine, I indicated the location for the new virtual machine as any new drive G. After I had removed this virtual machine and created a new in 'G:\FolderName', the new virtual machine begins to create fine snapshots.

  It is important to specify the folder (not just a new drive letter) as the location for the new virtual machine.
