点ok后出现


点了finish对话框就关闭了

解决：
查看我的文档目录是在哪里的，更改个确实存在的目录（不要是在移动硬盘或者别的不存在的目录里边），具体可以在桌面 ——我的文档 ——属性——目标文件夹——，安装虚拟机。

::这个问题待完善

Error 1325 - Documents is not a valid short file name Posted: Mar 17, 2006 2:32 PM     Reply I am trying to install vmware and i get this message "Error 1325 - Documents is not a valid short file name" in a vmware window when the installer is in the phase of allocating space. I have net framework 1.1 with sp1, i have tried to uninstall and reinstall office but still i get the same message. Any ideas ?

Re: Error 1325 - Documents is not a valid short file name Posted: Mar 18, 2006 6:03 AM   in response to: Sebaxgr     Reply What is your user's %temp% variable set to? I've seen goofy things with temp paths being too long... If you don't care about individual users' temp folders being kept separate, then I'd recommend the following... Right-click My computer, Properties-->Advanced Tab-->Environment Variables button. If in the top section (user variables) there are lines for Temp and Tmp, select and delete each of them. They should already exist in the bottom section (system variables), and point to something like "C:/Windows/Temp". Make sure also to clean up the temp folder before trying to reinstall. Rob

Re: Error 1325 - Documents is not a valid short file name Posted: Mar 18, 2006 5:19 PM   in response to: Sebaxgr     Reply I have changed the tmp and temp directories to c:/temp and c:/tmp. Also i have checked that My Documents folder is properly declared and also i tried to declare it in c:/Documents. Stil the same thing happens. I have read from microsoft knowledgebase that there is a problem with .net framework 1.1 in some occasions and they are planning to release a hotfix. Neverthelss still i cannot manage to install vmware workstation or player. Thanks for the comments.

Re: Error 1325 - Documents is not a valid short file name Posted: Mar 19, 2006 3:48 PM   in response to: Sebaxgr     Reply I have found the solution. Initially i had declared "My Documents" folder in an external usb hard drive under the folder "G:/Documents". I removed the hard drive and i have reset the "My Documents" folder to the initial value of C:/, nevertheless i discovered when i connected a card reader and gave it the letter g:/, by creating the folder "Documents" it installed correctly to the system. I would like to mention that i have reseted the "My Documents" folder, performed multiple restarts and also i have used microsoft's regclean.exe to clean up old values.
