Hi all,

Some days ago Vmware has announced VIX API 1.8. I have installed Vmware Player 3.0. Inside this installation I could not find the VIX 1.8 which can be used to control VMware Player 3.0. Any idea where to download this new version? Or can this API only be installed with Vmware Workstation 7.0?

Thanks for a hint.

F.

Good question.

From my understanding 1.8 contains fixes for Workstation/Player only, so 1.7 is the latest for all other products. Waiting for 1.85.

Hi all together,

Finally I found it in the section "VMware Player Free Product Download". :) .

Download the player, within the list of components that are offered there's a direct VIX API 1.8 download.
