Avoiding extra shutdown disk activity by Virtual Machine on Windows 7

VMWare software works well. Generally, it doesn’t cause data loss or Windows failure. But it cannot be avoided. So to avoid that, you have to do some things. Follow these suggestions.

You have to quit VMWare software and begin to try shutting down the host of Windows 7. You also have to shut down host approx. I think this will solve config.ini of VMware Workstation. This file is stored in “C:ProgramDataVMwareVMware Workstation”. If you are using VMware Player, then go to this location “C:ProgramDataVMwareVMware Player”.
