I've just installed Vimarun to test as I simply am wanting my VM to run on startup with the GUI. I was using a startup script before but as you know that only runs in the background.
Everything ALMOST works perfect for my use case. when my system boots up, VMware loads, my VM starts to load but I get a popup that says The VMware Tools resume script did not run successfully in this virtual machine. The VM will not continue until I hit the OK button.
If I hit the OK button the VM does continue to load, but the problem for me is I need it to load without any user input, so no error/popup screen.
VMworkstation 16
Host OS: Win11
Guest OS: HomeAssistant OS
For what it's worth, I'm not too concerned about the VM shutting down or suspending etc whenever my Host OS reboots for any reason. I just need it to start automatically with the GUI in the foreground.
Any thoughts?
So basically, if I didn't get this error/popup, this would be absolutely perfect for me.
