In general, due to special needs, virtual machines (VMware) are installed in the Win7 system to install Ubuntu virtual environments so that two systems can be used simultaneously without rebooting. But want to put in the virtual machine Ubuntu editing files can be used at the same time by the program in the Win7, but do not want to use the two systems of QQ or USB stick, you need to be able to file in the virtual machine and Win7 (here to Win7 as an example, WinXP operation) under the realization of mutual transmission. One way to do this is through VMware's shared folders to implement the file transfer of Ubuntu and Win7 for virtual machines.
The first step: Start Ubuntu 12.04 (other versions of Ubuntu operation almost) 1. In the VMware virtual machine interface, point to Vm->install VMware Tools. After that, click the main file button in the Ubuntu window and then on the left you will see the VMware Tools folder in the device, double-click it and unzip the compressed file, and copy it to the home folder 2. Open the terminal terminal, enter the unpacked folder, and enter the following command: a) sudo tar zxf vmwaretools-xxx.tar.gz (Note: XXX is version number) b) CD/ VMWARE-TOOLS-DISTRIB           C) sudo./ vmware-install.pl press Enter during installation, or enter the prompt for Yes and no until the installation is complete. 3. View Results: lsmod | grep vmblock Step Two: Set the directory 1 for the shared folder. Turn Ubuntu off (power off), or you cannot add a shared folder 2. In the VMware Virtual machine window, select Vm->settings->options->shared folders &Nbsp; 3. Point to the right of Add, point next-> Select the path to the Win7 shared directory, and then click Next-> to select Enable this share->finish 4. On the right side of the Vm->settings->options->shared folders window, select Always enabled in the Folder sharing bar. 5. Click OK to exit but not yet done here, a third step to complete file sharing. Step three: Install the plugin 1 under Ubuntu virtual machine. Execute the sudo apt-get install open-vm-dkms (Note: This line will not be executed in the future if installed) 2. Execute sudo mount-t vmhgfs. host://mnt/hgfs 3. cd/mnt/hgfs can now see Win7 's shared folder directory under the/mnt/hgfs directory. Modifying files in a shared folder, whether in Linux or under Win7, will be modified at the same time on another system.
"Go" Win7 file sharing with VMware Ubuntu virtual machine (open-vm-dkms plug-in must be installed finally)
