So what can you do with these keyboard shortcut keys? Here is a list of some of the more important functions:
There are some required keyboard shortcuts you need to know just to use VMware. Then there are other keyboard shortcuts that you must know. Here's our list:
F11 | switches to full-screen mode and back to normal mode |
Ctrl-Alt-Insert | sends a Ctrl-Alt-Delete to the VMware Guest OS |
Ctrl-Alt | is also used for - exiting full screen mode |
Ctrl-Alt-Enter | Expands the current VM into full-screen. If you have a number of VMs, this sequence will also move you between virtual machines |
Ctrl-Alt-Tab | switch between VMs when the mouse is grabbed |
Ctrl-Tab | switch between VMs when the mouse is not grabbed but VMware is the active window |
Ctrl-Alt | is used to exit a Virtual machine from having control of your mouse and return your mouse control to the host machine |
Ctrl-Alt-Space | will allow you to send a keyboard sequence usually used with VMware server to the VMware guest without VMware Server recognizing it |
Now, here are some more that are used just within the VMware Server application to perform certain functions:
Ctrl-N | create a new VM |
Ctrl-O | open a new VM |
Ctrl-F4 | remove the tab for a VM |
Ctrl-D | edit the config for a VM |
Ctrl-G | grab the input from your mouse/keyboard on the current VM (same as clicking on the console of the VM with your mouse) |
Ctrl-P | edit VMware Preferences |
Ctrl-B | power on a VM |
Ctrl-E | power off a VM |
Ctrl-R | reset power on a VM |
Ctrl-Z | suspend a VM |
You can modify your keyboard shortcuts (hotkeys) from the default by going to the Edit menu, then clicking on Preferences, like this:
On the Preferences menu, click on the Hot Keys tab to customize your keyboard shortcuts:
In some cases when, using VMware, there may be a keyboard shortcut you must use. For example, to release your mouse from a VM without any tools installed, press Ctrl-Alt. However, in most cases, using keyboard shortcuts and hotkeys are optional but can end up saving you a lot of time. For tat reason, I suggest you print this list of shortcuts and keep it handy!
