on
When Microsoft tests new features in Windows, they don’t always roll them out to everyone right away. Instead, many updates are tucked away inside the system, waiting for Microsoft to flip a switch through A/B testing or staged rollouts . That’s where ViveTool comes in—a command-line utility that lets you enable (or disable) these hidden features before they officially reach the general public. What is ViveTool? ViveTool is a free, open-source utility created by Rafael Rivera and Albacore, two well-known Windows enthusiasts. It allows you to interact with Feature ID s inside Windows.

Ubuntu in VMware workstation 17

on
Download the Ubuntu iso here for installation in

VMware workstation 17.0 for a cheap price

If using an earlier version than 22.04 LTS, you'll need to manually update the snap store

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

sudo snap refresh


It is easy to install Ubuntu on VMware workstation 17. I find that on VirtualBox the 'sudo' commands don't work and you may run into the error 'user is not found in the sudoers list'



Simply start VMware workstation machine wizard and use a typical configuration



Browse to the Ubuntu iso file and click next



Here you will create a username and password. You will need this to log in and use Sudo commands in the terminal



Enter a location for Ubuntu virtual machine




I have Ubuntu installed on one of my external drives and have the storage size at 500 gigabytes



If you have a lot of ram you can use 16gb of ram for the VM so you can get the most use of your systems GPU 



Tap on done and start the virtual machine 



It's pretty straightforward. Set it up like any typical os. Install 3rd party drivers if you want
