VMWare Tools need access to My Documents ???

Hi,

since a few days, I'm having an error message under Win7 Maintenance Center about a video driver crash which refer to VMWare KB.

These VMs already have VMWare Tools installed.

So I've decided to uninstall & install it again. Not a soo good idea.

Because current user folders are remapped on the server, uninstalling VMWare Tools disconnect VMs from network . During first step of installation, it tried to access My Documents (which is on the server) to compute required space. But this folder is not reachable so, I can't install VMWare Tools.. 😕

I've tried with a local admin account which is not moved on the server, I can install VMWare tools. Strange behaviour.

(I'll check if video card problem is solved now)
