Hey everyone – if you follow my blog you probably remember me mentioning the other day that I was unable to get the VMware tools to install for ESXi 5.5 in Windows 10 server. I was using the conventional method of using Install/Upgrade VMware Tools from the “VM” menu, then the “Guest” option. Here’s a link to that post.

I was thinking today, “Hey, why don’t I try and install the tools from the ISO directly?” That is exactly what I did. When you check out your datastores in vSphere Client, you’ll see you have access only to your VMs and maybe any ISO’s you’ve uploaded to the datastore, for instance:

  • VMware Tools is the same for VMware ESXi, VMware Workstation, VMware Player, and VMware Fusion. Only the features required differ. Only the features required differ. Note that other virtualization platforms have a similar concept: for example, Microsoft Hyper-V has the Integration Services, Nutanix AHV has the NGT (Nutanix Guest Tools).
  • In that folder there’s a tools-isoimages folder, and under that a file called windows.iso: Mount the windows.iso file to the VM and then connect to the VM either through console or RDP, open the CD, and click on setup64.exe: That’ll kick off the VMware tools installation, simply click on typical, then next a few times, and you’re done.
  • VMware Tools.ISO file should be 0:1. DO NOT use the VMware Tools that comes with the ESXi host installation. Use the Latest VMware Tools. Tools in Windows 10.
  • The Windows pre-Vista iso image for VMWare Tools is no longer packaged with ESXi. The Windows pre-Vista iso image is available for download by users who require it. For download information, see the Product Download page. End of Feature Support Notice.

But, if you go to mount an ISO on a VM you’ll see that above any datastores you created there will be a vmimages folder. In that folder there’s a tools-isoimages folder, and under that a file called windows.iso:

Mount the windows.iso file to the VM and then connect to the VM either through console or RDP, open the CD, and click on setup64.exe:

Built for Windows 10 and More. Workstation 12 Player is the best way to run Windows 10 with your existing Windows or Linux PC. In a few simple steps you can easily install Windows 10 in a virtual machines from a disk or ISO image using the Workstation Player Virtual Machines Wizard.

That’ll kick off the VMware tools installation, simply click on typical, then next a few times, and you’re done. Restart the server when prompted. At this point you can remove the 1000E or E1000E NIC you had and add a VMXNET3 adapter. It all works! Proper capturing of the cursor in console works as well! The only problem is that there still remains an item in device manager that is unknown. Details on that device though point to it being an ACPI device so it’s likely some virtual power thing. I might continue to troubleshoot later. Here you see we’ve got the VMXNET3 adapter working properly:

And here’s the device manager view showing the interface properly:

You’ll also see the unknown device above which I hope to sort out if possible.

So anyway this is nothing revolutionary but it shows how to get VMware Tools properly installed in Windows 10 Server Technical Preview. Although totally optional, VMware tools make using the console much more pleasant since it won’t capture the mouse requiring you to ALT+CTRL constantly to escape the console screen, and it gives you the drivers for the VMXNET3 network adapter which is optimized and higher performance in VMware ESXi 5.5

So, hope you guys find this useful! So far I am loving Windows 10 Server!
