  • 1.  VMRC and Win 10 install...The user did not accept the license agreement by passing EULAS_AGREED=1 on the command line.

    I am running the msi from my win10 desktop and have accepted the EULA's as they have popped up but it will not install.  Has anyone else run across this?  I have attached a screen shot.

    Is the MSI being ran as Administrator (right click > Run as Administrator)?

    Here's how to start a silent install on Windows from an instance of CMD run as Administrator:

    For .msi installers (up to VMRC 10.0.1):

    • msiexec /i VMware-VMRC-10.0.1-5898794.msi /QN EULAS_AGREED=1 AUTOSOFTWAREUPDATE=0 DATACOLLECTION=0 /L* "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\vmrc.log"

    For .exe installers (10.0.2 and newer):

    • VMware-VMRC-10.0.2-7096020.exe /V /Qn EULAS_AGREED=1 AUTOSOFTWAREUPDATE=0 ATACOLLECTION=0 /L "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\vmrc.log"

    Note the "n" after "/Q" must be lower case in the second example.

    Hello, I use windows 10 x64 1903. When I wanted to upgrade vmware workstation pro 14 to 15, I deleted the installation folder, deleted all the keys related to "vmware" in the registry, and then installed vmware workstation pro At 15:00, such an error occurred. I wonder if it can be solved?

    I am amazed and astounded at a company as big as VMWare has not fixed this problem in over 6 years.

    If you are on Windows 10, the quickest way to solve this problem is:

    1. Put the installer on the desktop
    2. Right-click the installer and "create shortcut" which will add another icon (the shortcut) to your desktop
    3. Right-click the shortcut that got created and select properties
    4. In the "target" box after the .exe (or .msi) add an extra space and then add /v EULAS_AGREED=1

    So your target box will look similar to:
    C:\Users\<YOURACCOUNT>\Desktop\VMware-player-full-X.X.X-XXXXXXXX.exe /v EULAS_AGREED=1
    Now click OK to save your changes, and run the installer. It will let you install.
