Default Host Application

Hi all,

I am trying to run a .bat file in my VMware and I am receiving the error Default Host Application: filename.exe.windows is not in a folder shared with the host and cannot be opened by the host.

I've already changed the Default browser to Internet Explorer. What else do I need to do? Cheers, Claudia

Does the bat file run as an administrator?
