Install VMWare Tools : ".\setup.exe is not recognized as an internal or external command."

I apologize for making so many posts - but each of these feels like a distinct and separate problem with the installation instructions.  Am I following the right guide?  If so, it seems to be out of date.  On page 39 "Procedure: Creating the VM and installing Windows 11 from ISO", step 3, it says to click on the window and press Shift-Fn-F10.  Small issue, but that did not do anything for me.  Probably my das Keyboard.  I had to just press Shift-F10 for it to respond.

 

But on the next step, Step 4, it says to run .\setup.exe from the D drive.  I get the message ".\setup.exe is not recognized as an internal or external command."  And if I run 'dir', there is no setup.exe inn the D drive's root directory.

There's a "setup.ps1".  But if I run that, it puts up a dialog "Package failed updates, dependency or conflict validation."
