Should you decide to create your own VMware installation of Kali Linux (rather than using our pre-made VMware images), and you want to force a manual reinstall of open-vm-tools (as something has gone wrong), first make sure you are fully updated, then enter the following. The Guest Tools are also pre-installed in the Live image since Kali Linux 2021.3.Īs of September 2015, VMware recommends using the distribution-specific open-vm-tools (OVT) instead of the VMware Tools package for guest machines.
If it is, then automatically install any additional tools (in VMware case, open-vm-tools and open-vm-tools-desktop).
This is why since Kali Linux 2019.3, during the setup process it should detect if Kali Linux is inside a VM.
Installing “Guest Tools”, gives a better user experience with VMware VMs.
