Hello I have VMware tools installed previously but I have got the error message saying that VMware tools: Running/(Unsupported) and some other hosts Running/(Not Installed). I have a VMware tool version and this working very good. To solve this error message I have uninstalled the VMware tools and now I am looking for the latest VMware tools for my workstation 5.0.
