Click the Mount new… button at the bottom of the window and follow the instructions. It works on pretty much all versions of Windows. OSFMount is a 3rd party free image mounting tool that mounts not only ISO format images but also VMDK files in Windows with a drive letter. The command line is easy to use and powerful, but I am finding it’s not so easy to get the Development Kit installed on my computer for some reason. If you want to list all the mounted virtual drives use /L: vmware-mount.exe /L vmware-mount.exe /m:w X: “C:\Temp\TestVM.vmdk” This is extremely helpful if you need to replace a broken system file. If you need a writeable access, just use the parameter “/m:w“. If the VMDK file contains more than one partition you can use the parameter /v:x to mount the other volumes: vmware-mount.exe /v:2 X: “C:\Temp\TestVM.vmdk” To mount a VMDK file (saved at C:\temp) in read-only mode use the following command: vmware-mount.exe X: “C:\Temp\TestVM.vmdk”

The tool is part of the vSphere Disk Development Kit, so you need to download and install the kit to use the tool. The “VMware-mount” command line is the one you can use to mount a VMDK disk without a GUI interface. Go to File menu and select Map Virtual Disks… from the drop-down list to start the process. If the method of using Windows Explorer doesn’t work out, VMware Workstation is next one in the line to try. It has the “Map Virtual Disks” feature built in that opens VMDK in a wider format. VMware Workstation is VMware’s desktop solution for virtualization. When it’s not, it’s time to seek alternative options.

To disconnect, right-click the mapped drive and choose Disconnect Virtual Disk. Select the drive letter you want to map to, and click OK button on the Map Virtual Disk window.
