VMware workstation vm not listed, after migration

The Organization has just migrated my pc. Migration of post that vmware workstation console is not listed the virtual machines. The migration involved, creating a new user in the new field that seem to have created the problem. The migration has been copied on my stuff together of old of the user for new users. So, I always files vm for the virtual machine to C:\Users\my-new-user\Documents\Virtual Machines.

To start the virtual machine, I created a new virtual machine using the hard file. This seems to start the virtual machine where I left. So, in summary, I'm looking for:

1 / how to list all the virtual machines on the console of vmware worstation as before for the new user

2 / when I re - create a new virtual machine using a hard disk existing a VM, I see many files as hard

vmname.VMDK

vmname - s001.vmdk

vmname - s002.vmdk

.

.

.

.

.

.

vmname - s025.vmdk


Should what file I use? I used the "vmname.vmdk" to create and it works

If all the files have been migrated, you don't need to create new VMs. simply open the configuration (.vmx) from the file menu of VMware Workstation virtual machine files.

  • VMWare Workstation does not work after successful installation

    Hello world

    I installed VMWare Workstation 6.0.5 on Win XP SP3 with success, but the program itself does not start, I get no error messages, just nothing happens. Nothing in the logs of the system either.

    When I tried to run the program in Mode safe mode, it worked!... (obviously impossible to start a computer V, but Workstation started very well)

    any ideas?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think I just found the reason... and a deaf mute.

    I have installed many programs of news lately for the WebCam and connect it to my DirectTV DVR.  So I did not understand that the wrong software belongs to but think it is the WebCam install stuff that belongs to Live Messenger.

    Anywho, the process that prevents any software vmWare installation or execution was "FixCamera.exe".

    Once I have debug more I will update this list.

    It's by chance luck that I found that I was killing various thought process that it could be linked to the virus filters.

    Kind regards

  • 'VMware Workstation does not support the multiple monitors feature in other guests'

    When I click the icon "Cycle multiple monitors", I get the message "VMware Workstation does not support the multiple monitors feature in other guests."  Google found me no hits on it.  Anyone know what that means or how I could get multiple monitors to work?

    The host OS is Windows 7 Professional x 64 with service pack 1 applied.  The guest operating system is Debian Linux, version 8, also 64-bit.

    $ uname - a

    Linux debianvm 3.16.0 - 4-amd64 SMP 3.16.7 - ckt9-3 #1 ~ deb8u1 Debian (2015-04-24) x86_64 GNU/Linux

    The virtual machine was created with VirtualBox, then exported to a .ova file, then imported into VMware Workstation.  VMware Workstation is version 11.1.2 build-2780323.

    Hi Steve and welcome on VMware communities!

    With your virtual machine turned off the power, go into the settings of your virtual machine and on the Options tab, under general, select the client OS type: Linux > Debian 7 64-bit.  Then try to turn your virtual computer and see if it works.  (8 debian is quite close to Debian 7.)

    See you soon,.

  • VMware Workstation 10 - not enough physical memory...

    So, I'm aware of the Windows KB2995388 8.1 update that causes this problem:

    Not enough physical memory is available to power on this virtual machine with its configured settings. To solve this problem, decrease the size of the memory of this virtual machine at 460 MB, increase the amount of physical memory for all the virtual machines to 3296 MB or adjust the parameters of extra memory to enable more virtual memory machine to swap. It is possible that native and/or services applications have locked memory which could help launch the virtual machine. Close unnecessary applications or services can free up enough memory to start this virtual machine. If you were able to on this Windows virtual machine on that host computer in the past, try restarting the host computer. Reboot may allow you to use a little more memory host to run virtual machines.

    but after upgrading my OS today I have the same symptoms and can't find installed KB2995388.

    I tried running VMware Workstation as an administrator with no luck either.

    Y at - it no alternative workaround, or is there an another Windows update that can cause this problem?

    Thanks for any help and advice.

    Yes, other updates can cause the same issue, because the change that was made in KB2995388 was incorporated in to many other more recent updates as well.

    What version of Workstation do you run?  If you run Workstation 10.0.4 or newer on Windows 8.1, this should no longer be a problem.

  • Files created in vmware workstation is not visible by the other OS

    After much research, I am in a bind. I use vmware workstation 7 with xp on a host of win7. When files are created within the virtual machine I can see them on the host of win7, but not on other computers in a network (OS x and ubuntu).

    Thanks much for any help.

    What types of files are they? Share permissions vs. ntfs permissions type

    of thing?

  • Update Windows 10 November (10586 aka 1511): bcdedit/set hypervisorlaunchtype off, but VMware Workstation does not start VMs with conflict of Hyper-V

    Hi all

    I upgraded from Windows 10 Windows 10 November updated this morning.

    I have the Hyper-V role is installed and use it from time to time, but bcdedit to configure the boot loader to disable Hyper-V by hypervisorlaunchtype power off.

    This technique has worked with 10 Windows and VMware Workstation and I could start and run virtual machines

    Since I did the upgrade, I can't start VM with this standard message "VMware Workstation and Hyper-V are not compatible"

    I am running VMware Workstation 10, but suspect that this problem also exists with later versions.

    Everyone knows about this problem?

    Someone at - he found a solution?

    I'm willing to fork over $150 for 12 workstations to solve this problem, but I want to know with certainty that it is circumventing my problem.

    Thanks for that.

    Uninstallation and reinstallation of the hyper-v feature, following the upgrade of Windows Windows 10 November 10 update solved the problem.

    I still need to run the following command to disable the Hyper-V technology

    bcdedit/set hypervisorlaunchtype

    Thanks to everyone for their help.

  • VMWare Workstation does not stop is a virtual completely on Surface Pro 3 machine

    Hello

    I use VMWare Workstation 10.0.3 on my 3 Surface Pro I7 with 8 GB of memory. Most of the time when I suspend my virtual machine image he doesn't stop the virtual machine completely. The result is that I cannot supply or not more and even can't leave VMWare Workstation, because it says that the virtual machine is always busy. When I force to restart my computer and start VMWare Workstation virtual machine once again watch as suspended. What is good.

    This happens only on my Surface Pro 3

    Can anyone help?

    Best regards

  • VMWare Workstation fail to restart after suspend

    I'm using VMWare Workstation 7.1.1 build 282343 on a laptop Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 (8 GB). I run my VMS machines from a disk external eSata. My VMs are all Windows Server 2008 x 64. When I finished work I suspend the virtual machine, stop VMWare Workstation, then disconnect the eSata drive. It is, whenever I just restarted the VM, I get a message that is not possible to restore and I give myself the opportunity to "get rid" or retry - retry fails, so I have to throw. It's embarrassing because it then takes a boot for a long time the virtual machine from scratch.

    Any ideas how to solve this problem?

    disable USB-support for this virtual machine and start again

  • Why vmware workstation does not mask the cpuid SYSCALL/SYSRET little?

    I am running VMware workstation 11.1.3 on linux.  In my client operating system 64-bit, I notice that cpuid for eax = 0 x 8000001 returns a value edx masks who has always little 11.  It's the bit SYSCALL/SYSRET ability.

    Here is the part of the vmware.log file shows the parameters of my hostCPUID:

    2016 02-03 T 15: 59:19.629 - 08:00 | VMX | I120: hostCPUID level 80000001, 0: 0x00000000 0x00000000 0 x 00000021 0x2c100800

    As you can see, edx is 0x2c100800, which means that my system is capable of SYSCALL/SYSRET.

    I tried to add the following to my vmx file:

    monitor_control.enable_fullcpuid = 'TRUE '.

    CPUID.80000001.EDX = '-:-:-:-:-: 1 -: -: - ".

    Unfortunately, even with these settings, my diary of vmware shows no entry in the section 'Differences CPUID of hostCPUID' to cpuid.80000001.

    As a test, I tried to change bit 10 instead of 11 to cpuid.80000001.edx bits and the difference that presented themselves.  So what is the 11 bit characteristic, and why is he always have hidden inside the virtual machine no matter what I do?

    Thank you.

    You check what code 64-bit or 32-bit code in compatibility mode?  Mode 32 bits (legacy and compatibility), only AMD processors set this bit.

  • Remote SSH to ESX 4.1 (running in VMWare Workstation) is not possible

  • VM not Boot After Migration to ESXi v4

    I migrated to a new server ESXi v4 recently all my Hyper-v VMS using converter. On 8 virtual machines that I had converted 2 of them does not start and have the same problem. When they turn on, they show the screen of the POST from VMWare and then sit to a blank screen with a blinking cursor. Anyone seen this before?

    Some additional facts:

    -The 2 that aren't startup are both of the Windows Server 2003 R2 virtual machines. All other servers who worked were Windows Server 2008.

    -Do a repair with FIXMBR and FIXBOOT has not worked while I checked that all data are available in the Recovery Console boot from the DVD.

    -Going through all the stages of KB1006296 did not work.

    -Removing and adding the virtual disks has not helped.

    -J' I look for threads where many people see problems of this kind but not with any help.

    For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Chris

    With standalone converter, you have two buttons at the top... Convert the Machine and computer configuration.  Convert Machine made what he says, starts a process of conversion, but configure Machine runs the configuration process (the same thing that happens in the last 5% of the conversion process) to make compatible with current customer to run in a virtual environment (i.e. changes the speed control for everything that you have specified and installs the drivers and the entries in the registry so that good drivers charge etc...)

    So, you might be able to get away with just the race through a reconfigure virtual machine.

  • SuSE 11.0: VMware process are not started after the system startup

    Hello

    Suddenly, I have the problem, that after restarting my computer (SuSE 11.0, 64-bit) host VMware and VMnet services are not started. After you run the command "/etc/init.d/vmware restart" everything is fine - until the next reboot. I don't have any idea what caused this. I also run /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl once again, but he has just helped until the next reboot.

    What can I do to get these VMware processes started automatically with the system startup, please?
