Or, VMware tools
installation failed with ‘internal error 2203’.
Or,
Error 2203 while installing VMware tool, Installation Error 2203.
Descriptions: If you have tried too many random KBs and still
struggling with this small issue, you must give a try to the solution explained
in this KB.
In my case, the
cause of the problem was, Program Files
directory’s permission was not inherited to its parent folder and the current
user I am logged in with is not having any permission on ‘VMware Tool’ folder.
Steps: workaround to get rid of this error.
1. Navigate to C:\Program Files\VMware
2. Assign Full
Permission to Everyone on "VMware
Tool" folder or assign Full Permission 3. to the current user with which
you are logged in on the windows machine.
4. Assign Full
Permission to Everyone on "Windows\Temp"
folder.
5. Once the above
trick steps completed, take a reboot of the machine and then you can proceed to initiate the VMware Tool Installation again.
Cheers. Please
write me back if you have any query of feedback..
