In order to to find out whether Windows 7 SP1 X64 drivers & Some CG Software works in Win 8.1 X64, i wanted to know how to share folder in between guest & host OS in VMWare Workstation I have Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 X64 as main OS & i installed Windows 8.1 Pro X64 In VMware but i don't know how to share folder plz some one tell me how can i share folder between these two OS.
Note :- CG software's (Autodesk 3ds max, maya, SoftImage, Adobe Cs6, Nuke) are very huge so pendrive is not an option
Goto the virtual machine in main screen library->
My computer.
Below it you will get a list of all vietual machines by their name.
Right click in the virtual machine:s name.
Select settings at the bottom of the popup menu.
You will get two different panels . Virtual machine settings -> Hardware settings / Options.
Goto Options tab.
Select shared folders tab.
It:ll be disabled by default.
Choose the option "always enabled".
Add the path of the shared folder from the box given below.
The steps may vary depending on the version of VMware. Go to help topics and search for 'share'. It will show the steps for your version of VMware.
