Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade to workstation 6.5. I tried to follow the instructions for uninstalling workstation 6.0 but cannot find the program under control pannel/ add or remove programs. the only thing listed there is VMware diskmount utility which is only 8.75 MB and the actual program is at least 400 MB. Any help or input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Either run the Workstation installer with the /c switch from a command line, or use the VMware Cleaner and manual registry edits found in knowledgebase article 1308.
