Very Very bad option!!!

I'm wondering HOW THAT vmware did not yet came with a save solution do execute a simple vm restart (OS reboot) and not PC RESET - as its actual doing right now ???

Yes, this option in images below is executing

- A soft unplug power cord and plug power cord on and start

- otherwise a 5sec power button press and press power button to start again

The OS is feeling like - oups I missed power - are you Shure you want me start normally ???

And exactly agree that doing restart with 2 tasks in VMware is a bad idea too as you may miss the start for numerous reasons the shutdown took too long

For Windows guys :

Suggest you to use an old mate Task Scheduler

- Execute a program: c:\windows\system32\shutdown.exe with option -r -f

- Run once: tomorrow at 00:01:00 for example (tonight said in other words)

Thank you

Vadim
