VMware Player 3.0与它的vmnetcfg

VMware Player 3.0把创建虚拟机的功能也给加进来了，不错。装完却发现配置网络的工具vmnetcfg.exe没有了，为什么把这个给去掉呢？网上搜了一下，发现有高人指出原来vmnetcfg就在安装包里，只是没有拿出来...

 

Actually, as it turns out, the vmnetcfg.exe is included in the installer, but won't be installed. Here's a description as how to "pull" the exe out of the archive manually.

1. Run the installer with /e option. For example: VMware-player-3.0.0-197124.exe /e .\extract All contents will be extracted to "extract" folder.

2. Open "network.cab" and copy vmnetcfg.exe to your installation folder, typically "C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Player\".

PS: Don't bother copying an older version of vmnetcfg.exe from some older version of the player / workstation if you're running Windows 7 - it'll crash. (This one runs fine).

 

Enjoy,
