Vmware workstation 14 player copy paste not working free –

Same here. Windows 7 x64 host, VMWare Workstation 9. Though, haven’t found yet dependency between issue appearing, disappearing and reboots. Same issue – Windows 7 x64 inside Windows 7 x Very random.

Since you are running a Linux VM I have to ask. Are you using the genuine VMware tools that you compile? Or are you using the OpenVM Tools? While many people have told the difference between the two is slim to none I have had very very few problems when I am using the “roll your own” VMware tools. If you are not I would recommend trying that first and see if it resolve the issue. Also while slightly off topic it is worth mentioning. Are you aware that VMware Workstation 10 has been released.

While it would require a paid upgrade there is a chance that a quick look at the changelog could tell you if they resolved your problem or not. Might be worth a look. I can confirm the issue on Windows hosts and windows clients as well Beginning WS 7. I haven’t had success with the same method all the time but usually completely uninstalling, rebooting and installing vmWare tools resolves the problem. Show 4 more comments.

If above works, then ideally that paste via Host Menu should be working. Let us know about the results. I am suspecting something is off in tools. Has anybody found a solution to this, apart from rolling back to the previous version?

Please install open-vm-tools with below commands and make sure those are successfull: yum install open-vm-tools yum install open-vm-tools-desktop You need to start vmtoolsd and vgauthd, and reboot. If after running above commands if you still don’t see the second entry like below, Please file issue in open-vm-tools GitHub repo. Yes, I’ve found that too. I was hoping they had fixed it in the update.

Also dnd and Copy Paste should be enabled, then only Paste in Edit Menu will be enabled and working Otherwise it will not work and that’s new expected behaviour.

Skip to content. Star 1. New issue. Jump to bottom. Guests on Linux Copy link. The title pretty much makes the point.

It appears to be one-way. I can move TO the guest, but not TO the host. All of this was working fine prior to the upgrade from I’m available to test. Are you using Wayland? Unfortunately drag and drop does not work with Wayland. I read the knowledge base article. What diagnostics would you like for me to run, and provide results?
