I did this too, but nothing changed unfortunately!

Try this: apt install open-vm-tools open-vm-tools-desktop. This may help. Errors regarding permission turned up and I added “sudo” at the beginning of the commands. Still nothing different! I’ve done this already. VMs can be configured to reset after each use without the need to recreate from the original file.

Suppliers of operating systems with commercial licences usually require installations to be licensed; VMs with such operating systems installed cannot be distributed without restriction. Ready-to-use VMs with Microsoft or Apple operating systems installed, in particular, are not distributed, except for evaluation versions.

Versions of Player for different platforms have their own Tools, not necessarily compatible with other versions. Sometimes Tools are updated belatedly; for example, Player 4. Virtual machines created by one VMware software product can be used by any other. It is often possible to use VMs created by one manufacturer’s virtual machine software with software from another manufacturer, either directly or via a conversion procedure.

This software can also create a virtual machine from a physical PC. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. VMware Player running Ubuntu Retrieved VMware Player home page.

This setting has always worked until Workstation Pro Connection to the host is now possible using this address as the hostname to connect to within puTTY. Shutting down Under normal circumstances you should just close the FSLvm window, this will suspend the FSLvm to disk allowing quick restoration of your session at a later date.

However, sometimes it may be necessary to shutdown the FSLvm entirely say if you are moving it to a new computer. To do this, click on the power icon in the top right of the desktop menu bar, click on the power icon bottom left and choose Shutdown.

When updates are available a message window will appear in the top right of the Linux desktop advising you of what updated packages are available.

Clicking on the icon associated with this message will open the package update utility which can be used to update the system.

You will be asked for the root password that you set when installing the FSLvm before being allowed to install these updates. Updating VMware Tools If you find that the shared folder functionality stops working then you will need to update the VMware tools, to do this follow these instructions. You will now be asked a series of questions. Hit return to accept the default to all of the questions. Once the installation is complete you should reboot the FSLvm to allow the changes to take effect.

For more demanding analyses you will need to increase the amount of available memory allocated to the virtual machine. Before you change this setting you should find out how much memory your computer has. With this in mind, you can calculate the amount of memory you can safely allocate to the FSLvm by following the advice below.

In the dialogue that opens type the value you have calculated as being optimal into the memory total box – the memory section will suggest some values for you. As indicated in this window once you have clicked OK you will need to restart the VM. Increasing the size of the virtual disk is also possible, but not straightforward, so if you require additional disk space we would recommend adding an additional USB hard drive to your system and dedicating it’s use to Linux.

For correct FSL operation, the drive should be formatted with the Linux ext3 filesystem. Follow these steps to carry out this formatting process.

Start with the drive disconnected Click inside the running VM window so that you are controlling Linux Connect the USB drive If the drive mounts and appears on your Linux desktop, right click and choose to un-mount it. Unfortunately, Centos won’t let you format the device at this point, so you need to format via the command line.

Open a terminal and become the root user: su – enter the root password when prompted Potential for data loss The next step will destroy everything on the drive you specify, so make sure you are certain that this is the correct disk.
