A quick VMWare Fusion Tip
Wednesday, November 4th, 2009
Have you ever had VMWare Fusion virtual machines do funky things that made you wish you could simply power off the VM? Well there is a way to power off your VM that doesn't appear on the Virtual Machines menu (unless you know the secret keystroke option). Take a look at your Virtual Machines menu and you will see Shut Down Guest, Suspend Guest and Restart Guess. If you hold down the Option key and re-select the Virtual Machines menu you will that the three options now read Power Off, Suspend and Restart. So next time your VM gives you trouble you can simply do a brute-force Power Off. Hope this tip has been helpful
