Linux (Ubuntu) and Windows for file sharing

Steps: 1. Download vmware and Ubuntu image files from the web

2. Installing the Ubuntu system on a virtual machine

3. Install VMware Tools in the installed system for file sharing

4. Set up a folder shared with Windows in VMware

The first step is relatively simple.

The second step: Create a new virtual machine in VMware, configure the system to use the image file, follow the prompts to fill in the user name, password, etc. until the installation is complete, the installation process is relatively simple, after the system will prompt restart.

Step three: Open the virtual machine, select Virtual machine--install VMware Tools from the VMware menu, then the CD icon appears in Ubuntu, then copy the compressed package from the VMware Tools folder to the/opt folder and unzip it. Go to the Media/vmware tool to perform the copy operation: sudo cp vmwaretools-5.5.0-18463.tar.gz/opt, then into the OPT directory, perform the decompression operation, Tar ZXVF Vmwaretools-5.5.0-18463.tar.gz, go to the Unzip folder, execute./vmware-install.pl, all the way to the return, until the installation succeeds, and then the MNT directory appears Hgfs folder.

Fourth step: Set up Shared folders, the common folders, options, settings, virtual machines, VMware, add a shared folder under Windows System.

The two systems can then share the contents of this folder.

Tips: If there are no shared folders under the Hgfs folder after installing VMware Tools and setting up shared folders, you can try restarting the virtual machine, I encountered this problem during the experiment and finally resolved it after the reboot.

Because it is after the experiment to write the article, so no, see is not very convenient, some of the place is not very clear, here is just a simple comb a bit of their own ideas.
