VMware and moving files.
Maybe I am stupid and all of you already knew this but I just recently discovered this :-)
 
What? O, okay. Well if you want to move files to or from a VMware session all you need to do is drag them from the Windows explorer in the host machine to a second Windows explorer in the VMware session. No need to share folders in the virtual machine and copy them through a shared folder or even a USB pen drive, just drag and drop will do nicely. And it doesn’t even have to be an explorer, the Windows desktop will do just fine.
 
I wish I had known about that sooner :-)
