How to Power on or Startup Guest OS in VMware Workstation


In this small tutorial, I am going to show you the method of powering on a VM or guest OS.

I’m using Ubuntu 22.04 for demonstration. However, this applies to any OS(Linux/Windows).

Power on or Startup Guest OS

Step 1. Open the VMware workstation software on your machine.
