Win8.1 the VMware virtual machine cannot install the virtual NIC?

The virtual machine is installed inside the win8.1, but there is no virtual NIC vmnet0 vmnet1 vmnet8?

Unable to change the network to a bridging state: No host network adapters are not bridged?

win8.1 How do I set up VMware bridging mode on the Internet?

Netbridge.inf not fit? VMware Bridge protocol not fit? Data errors?

The virtual serial port is not installed? Data errors?

OK, these questions let me to meet, then the following solution to tell everyone!

Win+r Pop-up Run window, enter services.msc into system service, find device Install service and Device Setup Manager services set to Automatic, and click Start! Look at the screenshot:

When Setup is complete, go directly to the Virtual network editor under the VMware Edit menu, and click "Restore Defaults"

This looks like it's OK! If we do not work, we recommend that the restart try!

Device Install Service Although it can be set to Manual (trigger) or automatic, but in fact after the boot this service will not start, even if the installation of the driver will not start, so pay attention to manually start, or under the admin cmd command: net start Deviceinstall started.

Attached: Some win8/8.1 users may not be able to install a printer driver or something. win8.1 installation drive has a feature that requires a forced signature, and if not, the driver will not be able to. VMware's virtual network card is also a driver, network connectivity has not been, which is caused by this reason.


windows8.1 install VMware Workstation cannot find virtual NIC solution

windows8.1 operating system, the virtual NIC Vmnet1 and Vmnet8 cannot be found in the network connection after installing workstation

First verify that the virtual NIC driver is not installed

NIC driver installation was found to be successful (vmnet0 for me to add later)

That means the NIC driver is not a problem, then confirm the local network card VMware Bridge protocol is installed successfully

Found that does not install VMware Bridge protocol, trying to install when there is an error 0x800700c1, look for the reasons for the formation of the wrong code;

Really helpless, consider whether to reinstall workstation, to find the latest version of the official web download for vmware-workstation-full- 10.0.3-1895310, who had previously installed the vmware-workstation-full-10.0.1-1379776, then updated the workstation version, updated completely after the miracle happened

However, the virtual machine or display can not connect vmnet8, view the local network card properties, did not install the VMware Bridge Protocol, attempt to install again, failed

Before reinstalling the system, guess if it is because VMware did not uninstall completely, causing these errors, reinstall after the full uninstall workstation, to reinstall after the local network card properties

Great, VMware Bridge protocol finally appeared. The virtual machine is turned on to get the IP address properly.
