Installing VMWare Workstation Pro on Ubuntu

 Environment: Ubuntu 20

Software File: VMware-Workstation-Full-16.2.4-20089737.x86_64.bundle


Bundle files obviously don't do anything. To make the file executable, go to the terminal and type:

chmod u+x (filename)

then

sudo ./(filename)


In this case:

(Change to directory where the file is located)

chmod u+x VMware-Workstation-Full-16.2.4-20089737.x86_64.bundle

sudo ./VMware-Workstation-Full-16.2.4-20089737.x86_64.bundle


for VMWare,

sudo apt install gcc

sudo apt install make

sudo apt update
