I know, Windows 7 is rather new and a lot of software has not properly adapted to it so far, but in the meantime it is not even easy to find an older host OS in order to properly use VMWare (on Windows 2000 as a Host it worked marvellous and I would not like to give it up so easy) Is disabling central security features in fact the official adivce to run VmWare on a Windows 7 Host? How can I use VMWare Workstation on a Windows 7 Host with a non-administrative account?īest would be, how can I use VMWare Workstation as a standard user AND have UAC on a recommendet security level? That would be Ok for experimenting every now and then, but not for regularly operating the computer as both is - for good reason - not recommendet by windows.Ĭan someone please give me some adivce on my questions: So far, I only manage to run VMWARE 7.1.2 on Windows 7 if I disable UAC AND log in as administrator. But that did not yet solve the problem as long as I tried it with a non administrative user account.įinally It works, but only in an unsafe manner: On a german vmware forum I found the advice, to disable windows 7's security feature UAC completely. When I try to start it from the task manager's services list, I get the error code_6000004. When I start a virtual machine, the system tells me, that the "VmWare Autorization Service" is not running. I have downloaded an evaluation copy of vmware workstation 7.1.2 in order to check, if I could use it to keep a proven windows 2000 environment on a windows 7 host. ![]() #SKYPE WILL NOT OPEN WITH UAC DISABLED SOFTWARE#
