Poor Data Throughput

Hello People

I have a common problem, I have two PC's - one Windows 8.1 running VMWare WorkStation 10 and one running Windows 7 HP with VMware WorkStation 9 that is the throughput of data when copying large amounts of data from the VM it's self.

Wondered if anyone could help - I have installed the latest version of VMWare Tools and that does not seem to have made any difference, to let you know the scale of the problem if I copy data on the host machine I get around 12meg per second transfer rate, on the guest machine I am lucky if I get a transfer rate of 1.2meg.

Would be grateful if anyone could advise a fix for this problem.

Many thanks and Season's Greetings to All

Best Regards

Pat

Using a utility called Unstoppable Roadkill but it's the same if you drag and drop
