Posted March 16, 200816 yr Standard silent installer for VMware6 tools v6.0.3.80004As said before on these the install just fails on a real installation! No muss, no fuss. So it's ok to leave it on your disk for real installations.Size - 5.63 megs MD5Hash = B5D986243C976E98B2188E161D8B9E52
March 16, 200816 yr Aww, they released v 603. Need to download whole 300mb arcieve for workstation Off-Topic Comment(Click to Show) What does this mean bro?"No muss, no fuss."You know, lack of english [Close]
March 16, 200816 yr Author No muss no fuss <--- Means it will not halt your installation or slow it down one bit on a live install. It just starts, sees its on a live machine and then fails to install.
May 30, 200816 yr Hey...just to let you know...if you use this silent installer with Vista and put the silent installer either in one of your first logon commands or setupcomplete.cmd, the computer will restart BEFORE initializing the first desktop. This means that all commands that were queued in First Logons or setupcomplete (like WPI) will NOT be run.To fix this problem, I simply edited the config.txt of the 7-zip silent installer and added a "/norestart" switch to the "RunProgram=" line of code.Config.txt;!@Install@!UTF-8!GUIMode="2"RunProgram="VMWAREtools.msi /qn /norestart";!@InstallEnd@!This fixed the restart problem before the first desktop loaded for me, and all drivers still installed fine upon my next CONTROLLED restart. Maybe you want to incorporate the "/norestart" switch into your future VMWare tools 7-zip silent installer releases.--radigast Edited May 30, 200816 yr by radigast
