unable to copy data from windows to linux

Hi All,

I am new to Linux, installed Linux on PC but when am trying to copy data from windows 7 to Linux (by using drag and drop mechanism) i can't able to copy.

Error message: Getting vmware unable to copy, Can anyone help me..

Thanks

Hi and Welcome !

Have you installed Vmware Tools? Cut/Copy/Paste or Drag/Drop between Host/Guest OSes doesn't work without Vmware Tools.

Hi

Thanks
