VMware ACE Administrator’s Manual
Expiration options for the shared folder. You can specify that the folder is always
enabled or that it is enabled only during the current working session. If you
select Disable after this session, the shared folder is disabled when you suspend
or power off the virtual machine.
To change the settings for a shared folder on the list, click the folder’s name to
highlight it, then click Properties. The Properties dialog box appears.
Change any settings you wish, then click OK.
Note: You can use shared folders to share any type of file. However, Windows
shortcuts and Linux symbolic links do not work correctly if you try to use them via
shared folders.
Caution: Do not open a file in a shared folder from more than one application at a
time. For example, you should not open the same file using an application on the host
operating system and another application in the guest operating system. In some
circumstances, doing so could cause data corruption in the file.
