This is what I get when I click any relevant VMWare Fusion download links in my profile. There used to be a page here. This started happening after I changed my last name. I *had* just the first letter, but I changed it to my full last name. I did this because it told me there was a problem with my information. I even went ahead and put my schools address for the 'company address'. I've never had to do all of this. I've downloaded the software in the past without all of this. I'm guessing a security audit flagged my account for not having "real" information. The information is real. You can call the phone number if you wnat. I *really* need VMWare Fusion. I don't want to clutter up your system with new accounts, but I'm going to have to. I've tried calling and they barely understood me. This is so bad. I'm screwed if I don't figure this out ASAP.

Normally I use VirtualBox, but I want to try out VMware. I have a folder on the host machine that I use to pass data back and forth between various VMs. I'd like to share this folder with my Linux virtual machine I'm using with Workstation Player. How do I do this? As you can see from the screen shot I've included it is `Enabled`, yet selecting the folder is greyed-out? Please advise. Thank you and I really appreciate the reply.

So I've done some reading and all I can find is how to disable it in `Workstation Pro`. If it's only available in `Workstation Pro` why would `Workstation Player` tell me I could disable it? I hope this isn't done intentionally to try to pressure users into making a `Pro` purchase. Please advise. I really appreciate the help. Thank you.
