vmWare> Boot to fullscreen VM after host boots.

Nov02
2011
Written by Scott Rowley

Create a shortcut with the following TARGET.

“C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Workstation\vmware.exe” -X “C:\Users\YOUR_USER\Documents\Virtual Machines\VMNAME\FILENAME.vmx”
New Shortcut

The -X opens in Full screen (before you go looking, I’ll save you the trouble — there is no dual screen option as of the writing of this article.)
Replace “C:\Users\YOUR_USER\Documents\Virtual Machines\VMNAME\FILENAME.vmx” with your vmx file location.
The quotes are required.

Put the shortcut into the Windows Startup folder
Windows Startup Folder

Voila!
Ubuntu
