Where is this so called vmWare tools?????????????????????????????????

Hello everyone.

Unfortunately and I really do mean that, I have to use VMWare because of the software I'm using supports only this VM. So I have to learn yet again another piece of software.

At any rate, I installed the free trial of VMWare workstation pro (Win 8.1 host and and imported an oracle  Win7 guest) and the menu item "Install VMware tools" is greyed and  my search led me to very old pages that indicated I have to download an ISO of some sort. I guess VMware can't download it or something like that.

So where can I download that package.

Thanks

Kal

Thanks I was able to download the files but that's about it. It's a crappy software and I decided to stick with virtual box.

Thanks so much
