In the virtual machine where Linux is installed, click Install Vmware-tools under the Virtual Machines menu.

/MNT mount directory for temporary mounting of other file systems, hardware devices
/tmp temp file directory to hold temporary files generated at different levels of execution
/sudo execute the command as a system administrator
Enter the following command in the terminal:
Mkdir/mnt/cdrom ' Creates a directory of Fame cdrom under the/MMT directory.
mount/dev/cdrom/mnt/cdrom ' mount the/dev/cdrom optical drive to the directory we created above.
cd/mnt/cdrom ' but changed to the mounted directory.
ls ' lists the files in this directory.
CP vmwaretools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz/tmp ' Copy the vmwaretools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz installation file under directory to the/tmp directory
cd/tmp ' But change to the/tmp folder
ls/tmp
lists whether the directory successfully copied the vmwaretools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz file from/mnt/cdrom.
TAR–ZXVF vmwaretools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz ' Unzip the vmwaretools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz installation file.
sudo vmware-tools-distrib/vmware-install.pl ' Install Vmware-tools, which is our main purpose.
