Hi,
RaSystemlord is correct.
The easy way to do that is by making a copy of the folder of the VM.
But you can only do that when the VM is shut down.
Making snapshots itself is a feature from VMware Workstation Professional.
If you want to make a backup with the VM running in VMware Player then there is another possibility.
You can do so by using my virtual machine backup product (http://vimalin.com)
You don't even have to buy vimalin for that, it is part of the free functionality, just like backup/restore itself are part of the free features (and always will be).
