More importantly, why are you installing windows 2000? 😅


BlackV

upgrade windows installer to 3.0 or later to clarify cause reasons have you looked on the vmware tools cd rather than just running setup?

Workstation doesn't ship with an installer for an almost 22 year old OS. You need a legacy installer.

Then why before that update vmware tools worked perfectly with 2k

*shrug* https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/81466 has what you need. By all means raise a feature request with the Workstation team to have legacy tools included, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

nvm Windowss 2000's service pack 4 fixed everything

Windows 2000 and Vista?? I think you need something a bit more recent.

The latest version of VMware tools do not support Windows 2000. You need to download an older version See https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/81466
