1 到菜單欄“虛擬機”裏選擇“安裝VMware Tools(I)”虛擬機工具
2 掛載了VM虛擬機工具以後的Linux系統的界面
3 右鍵“VMwareTools-6.0.2-59824.tar.gz”文件，複製到桌面，並把該文件直接解壓縮，得到“vmware-tools-distrib”文件夾。![]()
4 打開該文件夾，同時打開終端。
5 把文件“vmware-install.pl”所在的路徑 /root/Desktop/vmware-tools-distrib/vmware-install.pl
輸入終端中運行。（注意：以下操作需要在root用戶下才能進行！不是root用戶的請用su命令切換到root下。）
6 虛擬機工具安裝中。
7 出現如下提示時，按回車鍵使程序繼續運行。
8 到這一步時，一般選擇yes，可以自己選擇分辨率。屏幕閃爍一會兒，重新回到桌面，安裝結束。
安裝過程中的代碼如下所示：
