Where is the toolbar?

[kb27973]

Hi,

Just loaded up Fusion with WinXP. When I go into fusion mode the toolbar disappears and I can't get it to show. Can anybody tell me what in the world I'm doing wrong this time?

Also, Is there a pre-configured vm machine with Windows/oracle? I couldn't find one on the appliance website.

Thanks in advance,

Ken

There is currently no UI option to enable this feature. We have added experimental support for it. Follow the instructions below to enable the task bar:

A new hidden option to always show the Windows task bar in Unity. To

enable the task bar always:

1) In the Windows guest, go to: C:\Documents and Settings\All

Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware Tools. NOTE: The Application Data

folder won’t be visible unless Windows is set to display hidden files and

folders in Windows Explorer.

2) Open tools.conf in Notepad.

3) Add the following line unity.showTaskbar = "true" and save and close

the tools.conf file. Restart your Windows guest.

4) Next time you enter into the Unity view, VMware Fusion will show the

Windows task bar.

You may launch Windows applications without the start menu but using the Applications menu or the launcher which pops up.

There are currently no pre-configured Windows machine available for download due to licensing reasons.
