Why my VM's missing when you upgrade again VMware Player?

I got a set up virtual computer (version 4.0.0 - 471780 VMware Player) on my Windows 7 computer.

When finally, I tried to start, I got a notice that "new version available" (4.0.1).

I downloaded and ran the installation process. He said that I needed to uninstall the previous version before it would install. I guess VMware (the company) would be so stupid as to induce someone to download a new version which destroys all the work they have already done, but at this point, this seems to be what happened.

Assuming that it would be anything but keep uninstall my virtual machines intact, I clicked on continue.

After some time, he said the computer needed to be restarted. After reboot, I can not find any installation of VMware, old or new. The installation process does not continue after a reboot.

I looked into C:/Program Files (x 86) / VMware/VMware Player / and it seems to be completely empty (I don't check for hidden files, but I think that they are the least of my worries).

So, VMware actually invite me to remove my existing virtual machines? It actually interrupted my use of VMware me say there was an 'upgrade' which was in fact is similar to a virus that erases the work weeks/months? Or are these virtual machines safely hidden away somewhere, in a safe house where my evil hands can't reach and corrupt?

Please, tell me where they are. I promise you that I won't let them hurt.

Sometimes happens - not serious at all

first find the file VMware-player - 4.0.1 - 528992.exe

If you do not have the file open a cmd as admin and type

dir /s c:\VMware-player-4.0.1-528992.exe

that should show you the path to the file you - once you've found it - doubleclick it

When the installation is done your virtual machines should reappear.

If this isn't the case - and you don't have any virtual machines listed in the VMplayer window
Search your system for vmx-file and double-click them

and keep in mind that VMS are associated with VMplayer
as jpg or bmp-file MSpaint - MPG and VMs are just an application documents.

    Hello

    Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

    I suggest you try these methods and check the status of the issue.

    Method 1:

    Keep the computer in a clean boot and check the status of the issue. If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem. Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service. After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software.

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: Please go up to step 7 of the Kb to maintain the computer to a normal startup after you fix the problem

    Method 2:

    Open the troubleshooter in Windows Media Player settings, run and check the status of the issue.

    Sincerely, Emmanuel

    Hello

    Windows 7 / 2008 R2 doesn't use NTBackup.exe to back up files. Instead, it uses SDCLT.exe (in %SystemRoot%\System32\sdclt.exe( ), which depends on the shadow copy volume service.

    If you do not want to install even when NTBackup.exe , you will need the files that you can get your Windows XP CD nt5backup.cab Cabinet or you can download them from the internet, then copy the files into a new folder (for example, copy the following files to %ProgramFiles%\NTBackup)
    • Ntbackup.exe
    • Ntmsapi.dll
    • Vssapi.dll
    • Ntbackup.chm
    • Ntbackup.hlp
    If you have an existing installation of copy of Windows XP is already installed, please copy the following copy in a new folder (for example, copy the following files to %ProgramFiles%\NTBackup)
    • %SystemRoot%\System32\Ntbackup.exe
    • %SystemRoot%\System32\Ntmsapi.dll
    • %SystemRoot%\System32\Vssapi.dll
    • %SystemRoot%\Help\Ntbackup.chm
    • %SystemRoot%\Help\Ntbackup.hlp
    NOTE: You may receive the following error when you start NTBackup.exe on Windows 7. This error can be ignored

    The backup utility cannot connect to the removable storage service. This service is required for use with tape drives and other backup devices.

    Please, get out and start the RSM service using the Services management console system function.


    Thank you

  • New Document window are missing when you open the new document, along with other menu items: object style, the effect controls panel, etc.

    Miss me a lot of items, it seems that in my InDesign program.  How can this be?  I'm taking a class at the local college (inDesign CS6), and when you go through the book and steps, I keep noticing that I'm missing things.  For example: when I open a new Document - No new window does not appear on my screen, and there is no way to change the page size, etc. that appears. (2.) there is no object Styles Panel - window > Styles > Styles object - but the option object Styles does not exist.  3.) there are no available effects Panel, either. As I continue the race, things keep getting showing like that.  What is going on?  I do not have something wrong; My instructor verified that indeed these things seem to be missing.  I bought the Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium disc for Windows operating system.  Help, please!

    I had problems to install the drive, but thanks to someone in the forum, I have put everything on the desktop and installed in this way.  What why what is happening?

    In fact, you must return to the extensions Manager in all cases and make sure that all of the Adobe extensions are checked on.

  • Active Muse is missing when you change computers.

    I have a subscription to creative cloud.  I have installed on my Mac (office computer) and my MacBook (laptop) of Muse.  I have a site where I store the file Muse and all assets in my account of creative cloud (I do not store locally on my machine).  When I change the file to Muse on the same machine and then save them in the creative cloud, when I open this file on another machine, I get an error telling me that a lot of my possessions are missing and should be linked.  The assets have not been moved and is in the same place in my creative cloud account files.  It does not happen with all my property, but it comes up with a number of them... and it seems to be the same ones over and over again.  If both computers use the same 'Cloud' and the two files are synchronized with the cloud creative account, why what is happening?

    Thanks for any advice you can give!

    Hi all

    I was also having this problem but I managed to fix it. Essentially its down to where you keep your related files. I keep my friends, for all my sites of muse, in creative cloud file in a folder called 'active Live '. Obviously, this folder then gets synced between the cloud and connected my 2nd PC CC. On this unit, the 'Creative Cloud Files' folder is exactly the same as on my laptop... once everything is synchronized to the top. Thus, two creative cloud files are identical, containing a folder named 'Active Live' where all my files from muse to get their photos etc...

    HOWEVER: As noted above, in order to avoid the question relinking, the path root to your files are identical on both machines. In the contrary case, Muse's looking in the wrong place * (* depends on how you place the files in your site of Muse in the first place, but I did not search in great depth).

    THE SOLUTION: Is your creative Cloud Files folder to the same location on both computers that are running the software. To do this, create a new folder on your C:\ called something like "CCFolder". Open the creative application of cloud, then go to "preferences". Once there, click on 'Creative cloud' and then below that "Files" and you can see a drop down "file location". Click the menu drop down and you have the option to 'change... '. ». Click here and go to your new place "C:\CCFolder". The creative cloud app will now spend all your files to the new location. Repeat this process on your device and the result is that all of your files will be in the same place on both machines (in my case C:\CCFolder\Creative Cloud Files\Live active").

    When you now open your muse site, you will need to recreate a link to your files once more (because you just change the location of them), but after you save the file, sync it on your other computer, and then open it again... the relinking question should have.

    I hope this helps!

  • When you upgrade a storage iCloud plan you get to keep the free additional 5 GB?

    I am considering the iCloud the total amount of my photos and videos storage options exceeded the franchise of 5 GB.

    My question is - if I update the 50 GB plan, to keep the original free 5GB as well? I actually would have 55 GB of available storage total iCloud?

    I must say that I am very frustrated because as an avid user of Apple, I have 2 x 2 x iPads, iPhones and a MacBook Pro and still only got 5 GB of free storage iCloud to share between all devices. I don't think I should have to pay for additional storage, given the high investment I have with Apple products - it of crazy for me to buy a 128 GB iPhone and have only 5 GB free storage - but I don't see otherwise around having to upgrade and subscribe to a larger storage iCloud plan. Any ideas please.

    Does anyone think that Apple will increase their free storage plans and subscription at some point?

    If you upgrade to 50GB of storage from iCloud, you'll have 50GB.

    Since it is a forum for technical support for a user, we don't are not able to say why Apple made the decisions they did. However, you can send them your thoughts here: Apple - Feedback

  • WX350 - why camera appear no warning when you take pictures without a memory card?

    I have a digital camera Sony WX350 that allows me to take pictures even if I forgot to put the memory card in the camera? I realize account then I lost photos as none of them have been saved on the memory card.

    Why don't the camera WX350 indicates a warning, or prevents me from using the camera, if it detects it is no inserted memory card?

    In my view, that he should warn you when you turn on the camera.

    Also, I believe that there should be an icon indicating that there are no inserted memory card when it normally will show how many photos you can take.
