Please configure below service after that install
These are the services that VMware runs automatically at the system startup:
VMware Agent Service
VMware Authorization Service
VMware DHCP Service
VMware NAT Service
VMware Virtual Mount Manager Extended
An easier and simplest solution would be to set these services to manual startup type, so they
doesn’t start at system startup. To do so follow these steps:
Click Start > 1. Run and type “services.msc”
2. In the right pane, right-click each one of the services listed above, and select Properties.
change startup mode to “Manual” instead 3. of “Automatic”.
You can also automate these actions by running the following commands:
sc config VMAuthdService start= demand
sc config VMnetDHCP start= demand
sc config "VMWare NAT Service" start= demand
sc config vmount2 start= demand
You can create a text file with the above commands, and save it as a batch file, such as
Set_VMware_services.bat. You only need to run this batch file once to set the services startup
mode.
Note: The Agent Service should already be in Manual mode.
Next, instead of manually starting or stopping the services each time you want to start VMware
Workstation, create two batch files. One will be used to start all the services when required, and one
to stop all VMware services when you are finished using VMware.
VMware_Workstation_Start.bat:
Copy the following lines onto a text file and save it to your desktop:
sc start VMAuthdService
sc start VMnetDHCP
sc start "VMWare NAT Service"
sc start vmount2
"C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Workstation\vmware.exe"
BTW, you can use the NET START command instead of using SC.
Note: Change the C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Workstation\ path to C:\Program Files\VMware
\VMware Server\ if you're using VMware Server.
Whenever you want to run VMware Workstation just run the VMware_Workstation_Start.bat file.
VMware_Workstation_Stop.bat:
Copy the following lines onto a text file and save it to your desktop:
sc stop VMAuthdService
sc stop VMnetDHCP
sc stop "VMWare NAT Service"
sc stop vmount2
Again, you can use the NET START command instead of using SC.
Whenever you finish using VMware Workstation just run the VMware_Workstation_Stop.bat file
to shut down the VMware services.
