本文记录了一次尝试安装虚拟机时遇到的错误：“Setup has detected VMware software running on this machine.”，并介绍了通过谷歌搜索找到的解决方案，即检查是否对安装文件进行了重命名，导致安装程序误判。

今天突然想装一个虚拟机，难得闲得慌，于是就点了一下安装虚拟机的安装文件，

到正式安装的时候出现错误了：

Setup has detected VMware software running on this machine. Please power off or suspend all virtual machines and close all VMware applications before attempting to install this product.
奇怪了，我明明没有安装虚拟机，怎么会检测到虚拟机正在运行呢？

于是问了一下谷歌，于是在vmware官网上看到这样的问题解决方案：

Hi all

I have a windows xp sp2 machine and have just downloaded the vmware 5.5 trial version. The xp machine is fresh build with no existing installations of vmware. On running the vmware setup it says setup has detected vmware software running on this machine. Please power off or suspend all vmware applications before attempting to install this product. There are no existing versions running but it is blocking me running setup until i close them. Has anyone experienced this and what was the fix

Thanks

Did you rename the setup file which you downloaded? I seem to remember a similar post a couple of months ago, and that ended up being the problem - the poster had renamed the setup file to "vmware.exe", so when the installer unpacked itself and started up, it saw a process called vmware.exe, thought that was a VMware product running, and exited.
