The following help topics guide you through the features of VMware Player and how to use them.
VMware Player provides an intuitive user interface for running preconfigured ACEs and virtual machines created with VMware Workstation 4 and higher, GSX Server 3.x, VMware Server, and ESX Server 2.x and higher. Workstation 4 virtual machines run in legacy mode.
On Windows, you can also open and play Microsoft Virtual Server and Microsoft Virtual PC virtual machines, and Symantec Backup Exec System Recovery—formerly LiveState Recovery—system images.
The Help topics guide you through the key features of VMware Player and how to use them. You may not see all these features in the VMware Player on your computer. Certain features are available only if you are running an ACE and the administrator who created the ACE master enabled the features.
The latest product documentation, including the VMware Player Getting Started Guide and the Guest Operating System Installation Guide, is available from the VMware Web site at http://www.vmware.com/support/pubs.
