I have two Virtual machines, one is a Gentoo Linux image and the other is a Windows XP image.
The Gentoo Linux image has snapshot capability enabled, but the Windows XP image has the snapshot icons "greyed" out. I have the latest VMware tools installed on the XP image.
Does the image need some specific settings to enable snapshotting, or is this a bug?
Oh this is beta2 (41385) BTW (in case you hadn't worked this out).

Well your suggestion, at least made me go have a delve through my rather sprawling .vmx file which has gone through workstation and server before ending up in fusion.
And sheepishly I have to admit I found this line about 3/4r's of the way through.
snapshot.disabled = "TRUE"
That'll be the reason then
Thanks!
Doh! Given that you and I disabled snapshot capability differently this will be the place to check for the possible ways to end-up with disabled snapshots.
