VIRTUALIZATION

Part I: Installation of VMware Player

VMware Player is a free utility for running VMware Virtual Machines (VMs). It can run

one VM at a time. If you have VMware Workstation on a PC or VMware Fusion on a Mac, you

can also create VMs and run multiple VMs at the same time. There are VMware Player versions

for both Linux and Windows, and you can easily download them.

Here I explain how to set up VMware Player on a Windows PC using a copy of VMware

Player I have downloaded. Note that you should not install VMware Player if you already have

VMware Workstation or VMware Fusion installed on your computer.

Steps:

1. If you have installed VMware Player versions earlier than version 5.0, uninstall it and reboot

your PC. If your PC refuses to run VMware Player V5.0 you can use earlier versions of it.

2. Create a folder in your root directory (C:\). Name it VM.

3. Using a Web Browser, e.g. Mozilla Firefox, visit http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/OS-

Enhancements/VMware-Player.shtml to get the latest VMware Player version. Click

Download and on the next page you can select your download location (encircled in red).
