Simon,
How did you do that, with a backup or just copy and paste? Is Spotlight any help here? Did you copy the VM folder or the Windows folder inside it?

That was the first place I went to and there is no virtual machine folder there,

I didn't check to see if it was hidden but tha'ts the only other thing I can 
think of or that it's not where we think it is ment to be.

Hi Simon,

The VMWare machine files should be located in your Documents > Virtual Machines 
folder. The name of each machine is <what you called the machine> dot 
VmWareBundle, and it’s described as a VMWare bundle. If you move that file to a flash 
drive, then copy it back to your new image, I think you’ll be OK.

HI, yeah I really do agree with this.

I’m actually having issues with my VM Fusion windows 10 machine at the
moment

I need to have both platforms available to me at the same time and the VM has 
worked best for that situation so far, however now I need to do a full reimage 
of my 2018 mac book pro and I wanted to save the vm to a flash drive but can't 
find the vm files.

This would be so much easier with a second machine

I work in tech support and have gotten some calls from users of our windows 
software having issues with a virtual machine both on Fusion and Parallels. 
I've pretty much come to the conclusion that if you want to run Windows, use a 
separate PC, you will have far less problems.

Jonathan,
    It is starting to look lihe running a VM is not as good a deal as
a standalone Windows machine. I am also losing faith in the VMware forums.

This is the second person I have heard having issues with a Focus
display and current versions. ET was unable to get the Focus driver
installed. Does anybody know if these issues have been discussed
with VMWare? I guess the one other major issue we in the Blind
community have experienced with VMWare is that the Caps lock does
not get transferred over to the VM without major hacks. Personally,
I would love to have my Windows USB keyboard hard attached to the VM
but I have no idea if this is possible.

Hi Kelly,

I’ve struggled with VMWare Fusion lots as well, but do have it
going pretty much all the time now. The one trick I’ve noticed you
have to do is toggle back and forth in and out of your machine’s
screen while it’s starting up. I hope I can explain this correctly, here goes:

When your machine starts, you’ll eventually hear VO say “suspend
this guest operating system”. At that point, press
Command+control+f. You’ll probably hear VO say something like space
with applications followed by whatever is currently running, like finder, Mail, 
Messages or whatever.
Press Control+command+f again, and you should hear VO say “Space
with the name of your Windows machine full-screen”. At that point,
you know you are in the VMWare window. Press Control+G to give
keyboard focus to the VM machine. Oh yeah, and the keystroke to
start Narrator won’t work, because VO is picking up the
Control+Windows combination as its command. I normally do
Control+Windows+R,
then type Narrator, and it does come up. Then, to get out of
Narrator, I have to alt-tab to the Narrator Settings window, and
when I press Alt+F4, Narrator does exit. If you can get to the
point where you can in fact install JAWS, it does work pretty
nicely, by the way. I started out with VMWare 10, and my USB
devices, including my Focus 40 Blue, connected just fine. But then
I tried upgrading to VMWare Version 11, and for some reason I couldn't get any 
of my USB devices going, so I had to go back to version 10.

I hope this isn’t confusing, and that maybe others can chime in
with clarifications or other thoughts. Good luck and I hope you can get it 
going.

Hi,

These are probably basic questions but if there is a pointer or
other resource, I’d appreciate hearing about it. I am trying to
get VMWare Fusion to run on a MacBook Pro and not having a lot of luck.
I launch the program and it opens but then stops responding.
Eventually I force quit the program.

Does this generally work and if so any thoughts on what might be up?
I’ve used VirtualBox successfully previously on the same machine.

The machine is fully updated to the latest Mac OS.

Thank you,

Kelly
