Workstation 10 (on Linux at least) ALWAYS resets Windows VM in full screen

I can't be the only one with experience in the list?

I have Windows 8 on a virtual machine (works pretty well actually) and if I put the machine to "sleep" within the virtual machine, - or - if I suspend the machine since the homescreen Workstation 10, - or - I closed and power later on the guest virtual computer is not serious... He always goes out of the mode in FULL SCREEN mode... EACH-AND-EVERY TIME!

I tried looking for a setting that makes this "forced full screen" on every event that triggers it, but can't find anything of what is obvious that will disable the desired 10 Workstation always change mode window in FULL SCREEN.

It's REALLY annoying. SUPER boring. It causes several problems, like hide the host menu/panels. And sometimes put the comments in all its States with resizing comments office space again and again for 10 to 30 seconds (more large, smaller, lager, smaller, larger, smaller) - normally he eventually figures after two or three loops of what size to use and stops, but sometimes (rarely), I time clicking on window workstation 10 host JUST good to stop it.

WHY am I the only one to have pointed out this problem? I tried to search around and it's maybe one question of Linux. But that's apparently a hard-coded decision to reset FULL screen on a step or an operation of RECOVERY for Linux Workstation 10. It's really stupid NOT to have this as an option that can be changed. With the exception of this problem, Workstation 10 works perfectly and has improvements over the previous version I was using.

Please tell me that I'm not the only user of Linux know about this?

Hello, I have this, fought running Workstation 10 on 20 of Fedora.  If you examine the .vmx file in the directory of the virtual machine, you will see (probable) two entries resembling the following.

gui.lastPoweredViewMode = "full screen".

gui.viewModeAtPowerOn = "full screen".

I solved the problem by following these steps:

  • Comments from suspend/Shutdown
  • Close the workstation
  • Edit the .vmx for the specific virtual machine file and delete the above two lines
  • Restart the workstation
  • Resume/power reviews

Should work.  It will be useful.

    VMWARE Workstation 7.1.1 can fill VMNet0 on Windows 7, 64-bit host

    Is still more unfortunately now 'Fix' option on the installation media does not solve the problem.

    Running as the Local Administrator

    Please advice,

    You can try to install the service of vmnetbridge with vnetlib64.exe

    Have a look here

    http://sanbarrow.com/network/cmdguide2workstation.html

    Note: the instructions are written for 32-bit windows and may need some adjustments for 64-bit

    what you could try now is: disable UAC, all firewalls and all antivirustools and try again as an administrator to reset to the default values in the virtual network Editor

    Hello

    I have the same problem.  I had this bug with 10.11.x for awhile and then he suddenly stopped.

    I don't really know how...  Maybe it was a cleaning with Onyx, but I'm not sure.

    Since the upgrade of 10.11.4 today the bug came back.  I ran Onyx on the system without a bit of luck so far.

    @xryancx: do you have that you have installed a beta version of Mac OS X?  It was my case (El Capitan GM) but I did upgrade to the official, as soon has - it is available on the Mac App Store.

    Some people think that I've noticed is that the bug does not affect view DAILY.

    Step to reproduce:

    1. Calendar launch (you'll get the bug full screen)
    2. Exit full screen
    3. Click on daily view
    4. Return to full screen mode
    5. Calendar of quit smoking
    6. Calendar lunch again (there is no bug with day mode)

    Since that time my machine; while starting, is not always launch windows on the first attempt and must be stopped or started several times or remove the battery to get windows to activate.

    The dealer where I bought the machine did a clean reinstall.

    Is there a simple solution?

    Hello

    If the operating system has been installed once more and if this didn't solve the problem starting operating system, then I recommend you to check the HARD drive.

    Here is a nice tool called Drive Fitness Test that allows you to run some diagnostic procedures to find some problems with the HARD drive.
    Google for it

    Otherwise, I recommend that you install the operating system using the Toshiba recovery disc.
    Did you create this disc in the past? Isn't it?
