vmware-tray.exe - VMware Workstation | Windows Startup Programs

Program Name Filename Tested Status
VMware Workstation vmware-tray.exe Yes U
Description
System Tray access to virtual machines (VMs) currently in a "powered on" state in VMware Workstation - which "makes it simple to create and run multiple virtual machines on your desktop or laptop computer". Can be helpful if VMs are configured to run "headless" at Windows startup, in which case it can help you interact with the headless VMs. In that case, VMs could be powered on headless without ever starting up Workstation. If VMs aren't configured to run headless it isn't really required
How can I fix it?
Key What does it mean?

X Definitely not required - typically viruses, spyware, adware and "resource hogs".
