Uninstalling VMware Tools

When the upgrade process of VMware Tools is incomplete, you can uninstall and then reinstall VMware Tools.
  • 가상 시스템의 전원을 켭니다.
  • Log in to the guest operating system.
In a vSphere and open-vm-tools deployment, if you decide to use packages specific to Linux operating systems to manage VMware Tools, and if you already used vSphere to install VMware Tools, you must uninstall the existing VMware Tools. For more information about Linux OSPs for VMware Tools, see Linux 게스트 운영 체제용 운영 체제별 패키지.
VMware Tools is available only for very old Linux releases. The open source project open-vm-tools provides Linux support, and Linux vendors and Linux communities use it to deliver open-vm-tools for Linux releases. To install, upgrade, and uninstall the open-vm-tools on the system, use the software management tools provided by the Linux operating system.
