Win10/64bit running FreePlayer12.1 however task manager states (32bit)??

$

New Dell tablet with windows 10 PRO 64bit with the latest Workstation Player 12.1.

I confirmed I downloaded the 64bit version

taskmanager reflects 32bit

is that because the virtual running is Win7 32bit?

 

Sorry for newbie question

 

this is what I downloaded and installed

 

  • VMware-player-12.1.1-3770994.exe
  • 3770994

Be careful when destroying VMs!

So I was on a Win7 virtual machine, and I downloaded a shady software on purpose. My host's Avast blocked two viruses, so I rolled back to a snapshot and pledged to only use the VM for tech support scambaiting because I don't want my host to get wrecked, let alone allow viruses on my network where my mother has her work laptop.

Make sure you're using a VPN and have up-to-date antivirus software before messing with viruses.

Hi guys I used to be able to create a osx virtual machine on my Elitebook 2540p i7. I tried reinstalling player 12 but when I try to create a machine i can't choose OSX anymore I have Virtual Technology on in my bios settings. Is there anyone that had this problem or knows how to get it back up an running again?

workstation player 12 installation fail on windows 10

I'm trying to install player 12 on Windows 10 (VMware-player-12.1.1-3770994.exe). It silently fails when run from desktop icon (as admin or not) and command prompt (also admin or not). Also disabling antivirus prior to install doesn't seem to make any difference.

It comes up with the splash screen, then a little dialog which is displayed and closed too fast to read then nothing...

There don't seem to be any error messages on the windows log.

Player 12 installs and runs flawlessly on Ubuntu.

Any suggestions for either getting it to install or figuring out why it isn't?

Cheers

Update a Workstation 6.5.5 VM

I have a DSP software development VM for some old tools that only run on WinXP. I set this up years ago using VMware Workstation 6.5.5. I need to transfer this VM to another company and run it using VM Player or Workstation. The XP VM is a .vmdk and won't run under latest

 

How can I convert this Workstation 6.5.5 .vmdk to run with current versions of player or workstation?

 

If I roll back to 6.5.5 and run the XP VM, can I run the vCenter Converter within the VM to get to the new format?

VMware-Player-7.1.0 on Linux suddenly denies starting Win7

hi,

everything went fine since using Win7 als VM on Linux since 1 Month. Suddenly Win7 won't start any longer: "machine in use".

Deleting all *.lck (even directory) had no effect. I moved "caches", but no success. First question when starting vmplayer

is always: "Overtake ownership?". directly after click to "take ownership":

 

 

Error opening virtual machine /sda4/vmachines/win7-prof64/win7-prof64.vmx:

Taking ownership of this virtual machine failed.

The virtual machine is in use by an application on your host computer.

Configuration file: /sda4/vmachines/win7-prof64/win7-prof64.vmx.


Persmissions are correct, it even worked for one month:

A xubuntu 14.04 runs fine as VM on the same host. Only win7-prof won't start. A new vmem was

created once this morning. But then never again. I shut down xubuntu14.04, I stopped vmware rc-file,

I restartet vmware, I tried to start win7 only. No success, same error. I restarted xubuntu.


Very often no question "Take ownership .." appears. vmplayer just only starts a process that "hangs".

At command line start: no errors are reported.


Disk space is at 40% , some hundred gigabyte free.



Starting a copy of the machine from 3. August I get the same problem. So its not a problem

of the Win7 installation. But no software was installed/ changed. It's a vmplayer-problem. A gtkmm-problem?

Error while running sound stream: Recording may not work

$

I realize that one cannot expect too much in regards to sound/VoIP within a VM but I would like to at least give it a try in troubleshooting this error, since the sound actually works for a short time. Basically, what happens is I start a VoIP application and make a call and talk just fine for about 3 or 4 minutes and then the sound input ceases (the other party can't hear me) and I get this vmware error:

 

Error while running sound stream

Recording may not work

 

I have tried this on multiple VoIP applications and experienced the same problem. Most of the google results I'm seeing are for the sound input never working in the first place. This is different. The sound works perfectly -- actually amazing quality -- until it suddenly stops. Even after it stops, I can still hear the other party but they say they can't hear me. I have tried using every possible setting in the Use physical sound card drop down menu of vmware. Below are my specs. Ideas?

Issue with Player menu bar in VMware Workstation Player 12.1.1 with host OS Linux Mint 18

$
0

Using VMware Workstation Player 12.1.1 build-3770994  on Linux Mint 18 to make a Windows 7 VM. The issue is that on the VMware Player menu bar, where you usually see items like "File", "VM", and "Help", only "File" appears. However, once I have the "File" dropdown menu open, I can slide my mouse over to the right and the next (unlabeled) menu opens, and then if I slide my  mouse over a little more, the "Help" menu opens. Or I can click on the unlabeled part of the menu bar where the labels for those menus would be, and the dropdown menus appear.

 

Not a big thing, pretty much cosmetic since I can get to the unlabeled dropdown menus, but the Player is usually better than this. The menu bar labels and dropdown menus are usually all there, and the problems that I encounter are much more subtle operational problems. I've played around, but I don't see any way to bring the missing menu bar labels back. And I've removed and re-installed this (checked the md5sum after downloading, as well) and have seen the same thing both times.

 

Any way to get the full menu bar labeling? Am I the only one seeing this?

 

Thanks!

More problems with mouse with Workstation player 12.1.1 and Linux Mint 18

$

Okay, this is really annoying. Using Workstation player 12.1.1, the latest, on a Linux Mint 18 Host OS, with a Windows 7 VM. Occasionally the mouse cursor gets offset somehow, and I have to click somewhere in the vicinity of the item that I'm aiming at. This is really intolerable, so I re-install vmware-tools (which I've had to do several times already because of this) yet again, and it corrects the problem after a VM reboot. Then this same thing happens again.

 

I'm about ready to throw this thing out, both the player and the VM are more trouble than they're worth at this point...before I did that, thought I'd ask if there's anyone else experiencing this, and if there's some sort of workaround or something that I can do to keep this from happening?

 

Thanks!

Hi,

Copy&Paste is not working anymore between host and vm.

I already re-installed the VM tools. While configuring  the tools I get the attached exception

Host: Win10, VM: Ubuntu 16.04

 

Thx for support.

Hi,

 

After having my 2 vm instances run about 16+ hrs on my video game, screen turns black on my instances and becomes unresponsive.

 

I've only found threads on black screen at startup but haven't had luck with my scenario.

 

Haven't been around to see it happen.

 

windows 7, 128 gig hd space, sleep mode off, no screen saver, 4 gigs ram each instance, 3d acceleration gfx disabled,

 

Host machine:

i7-6700k overclocked to 4.6ghz

gtx 1070

32 gigs ram

windows 10 home

 

Anyone else have this problem or have any insight to fix this?

 

Thanks

Does player support suspend on host shutdown?

$

Does VMware player (I'm using version 7.1.4) support suspending the running VMs when the host OS (Windows 7) is shut down (or the user logs off)?

 

I just tried to shutdown the host and Window tells me the VMWare Player processes are holding the process.

 

I could swear this worked on the other computer, but that might have been VirtualPC and not VMWare Player. So someone please just confirm if VMware has this feature or not.

Thanks.

workstation 12 much slower after win 10 "anniversary" upgrade

The difference is dramatic, near the point of unusability.

 

The laptop has 8GB RAM. The VMWare virtual machine has 2GB.

 

An Adobe Acrobat PDFmaker task in the VM is more than an order of magnitude slower than it was before the update.

 

Anybody understand why this might be so, and what can be done about it?

Windows 10 guest on Magia Linux host

I have a small LAN.

My main machine as above communicates with the others via samba.

This machine has an XP guest that communicates the host's folders via samba, not by VMware's shared folders facility which is disabled.

I have been coerced into installing Windows 10 x32 so that my legacy software will continue to run.

The problem is that I cannot get Windows 10 to access the shares. I have installed three times so far.

One is Win 10 x64 which does access the hosts samba shares but I have spent several days trying to achieve the same with x32 without success.

I've tried every trick that I could find on the www without success.

 

Does anyone know or know someone who might know how to fix this?

 

Thanks in advance


Surface Pro 4 and VM Workstation 12 Scaling

$
0

Hi

I have a Surface Pro 4 with Windows 10 and VMWare Workstation 12 (12.1.1), using Mac OS X (10.11.6) as the guest OS

 

Has anyone solved the scaling issue when using VMWare 12 Player  and Mac OS X as the guest VM. The Mac guest VM text/menus etc. are so small/unreadable on the screen of the Surface Pro 4. The Surface tablet screen is 2736 x 1824 and Windows 10 scaling is set to 225%. I also have 2 x Mac 27" cinema monitors running through a Surface dock at 2560 x 1400.

 

I have tried amending the VMPlayer exe file compatibility to Win 8 and not to scale

 

The VM Machine display settings are set to Use Host settings for Monitor. If I adjust it to say 1920 x 1440 it just makes the windows running on the Pro 4 smaller. Does not scape the text etc within the VM machine up

 

When running the VM Wokrstation and Mac OS guest on the Surface screen natively (no ext monitors) everything is unreadibly small, but when running on one of the ext monitors all is perfectly workable

 

I have tried a manifest file but VMPlayer refuses to start using the external manifest file.

 

Ideas anyone???

Thanks

Failure to access VMDK disk

Hi all,

 

I have a VM for DragonFly BSD. It runs on a laptop on Windows 7 Pro and the virtual machine files, including the disks, are on a NTFS compressed folder.

After some time the VM stopped working because it can't access the VMDK file:

 

vmdk_failure.png

 

I have tried to repair it and even though it reports the problem as fixed the VM still can't start up correctly or right after it does the problem occurs.

Win7 host, CentOS 7 guest, spurious unwanted keypress repeats

$
0
0

I'm having a problem with my CentOS 7 guest on Windows 7 host, whereby every once in a while (and fairly often), a keypress will just start to repeat so I get a whole string of "s" or "a" or CRs or whatever.  I have to press another key to get it to stop.  The standard fix of adding "keyboard.typematicMinDelay" to the vmx file doesn't seem to be working.

 

This also happened on my Windows 10 guest on the same Windows 7 host, and I was able to fix it by adding 'keyboard.typematicMinDelay = "2000000"' to its vmx file.  However, adding that same parameter to the CentOS guest's vmx file did nothing... the guest ignores it.

 

I also tried "xset r rate 1000 10" in the CentOS guest, and all that does is slow the rep rate down, but I still get repeats where I don't want them.

 

What can I do to make the CentOS guest recognize the changed keyboard.typematicMinDelay parameter?  As I said it just ignores it.

 

Version of Player is Workstation 12 Player version 12.1.0 build 3272444.

 

Thanks...
