D/l'd v7, "File Not Found" when installing

Got a new computer. Wished to d/l v7 for a clean installation. Came here (vm), d/l'ed, but when trying to install got a "File not Found" error msg.

App show 763 MB, show I think it's there.

Ideas?

Hi,

Welcome at the VMware communities forum.

Not sure when you are getting the "file not found" error? Is that on trying to run the installer or on opening VMware Fusion?

If you get that while trying to install then I'd say your download is likely to be corrupt. If you get this on opening VMware Fusion, then it might indicate something else.

When Fusion 7 is installed it is 741.6MB, the download itself is 349MB. Irregardless, what size you are seeing doesn't matter much as you can have a file of 700 something MB that is corrupt. Try downloading again and verify the md5sum or SHA1sum hash that is on the download page to make sure your download was correct.
