Please refer to the VMTools 12.5.0 release notes for additional information:
With VMware Tools 12.5.0 and later, VMware Tools ISO image releases will only contain a single 64-bit setup.exe . There will not be a setup64.exe . VMware Tools 12.4.5 is the last feature release for Windows 32-bit guest operating systems.

Subject: VMWare 17.6.3 Tools Setup64.exe no longer exists?
Windows 11 24h2 host. Windows 11 24h2 guest. Run tools. Previous version had a setup64.exe. This version does not.
Is that normal? Has Broadcom rolled setup and setup64 into just setup?
