Disable VMware Tools Script
Last Updated January 20, 2025

The default scripts for suspending and resuming a virtual machine are interdependent. If you disable the script for one of these actions, you must also disable the script for the other action.
Log in as root on Linux, Solaris, and FreeBSD guest operating systems, to test, edit, or disable a script.
You cannot run scripts on NetWare, Windows NT, Me, Windows 98, and Windows 95 guest operating systems.
  1. Open a command prompt or terminal in the guest operating system.
  2. Change to the VMware Tools installation directory.
