I have just installed VMWARE Workstation 16 Pro to move files. How do I move files from the hosting computer to the Virtual Machine? My computer is a Windows 10 Enterprise and the OS of my vitrual machine is Ubuntu 22.04 64-bit

Hi there,
To transfer a file from the physical computer to the virtual machine, simply drag it to the virtual machine window (where the guest OS is displayed). You can also right-click "Copy" on the physical computer and right-click "Paste" in the guest OS.
To share folders on your physical PC to make them read-only (for security) or read/write (if needed) by the virtual machine.
