when i installed windows 7 in wmware workstation which running in the windows 11.
i find i can’t install vmtools.because the install vmare tools menu is gray.
after i try,the next is the fix step.
- remove the flopy driver in the vmware workstation hardware config.
- after step 1, you will find the install vmtools menu is enabled.
- but when i installing the vmtools in the windows7. it will occour some error so install vmware tools fail.
