I have the exact same problem. 1) I'm not sure what Data...-> Upload file means. I tried that in a notebook session as suggested but got a syntax error. I also try Upload? but no information is available.
2) I understand that one can set up a file sharing folder between windows and VMware but looks like it requires one to have VMware Workstation (to install VMware Tools) which is not a free product. Can we find an "upload window files to VMware system for dummies" somewhere?
