Uninstall VMware Tools
-
I have a number of Ubuntu 22.04LTS vm's to migrate.
All of them are running VMware Tools version 12325 and are guest-managed.
From Google, I learned that you need to run:
sudo vmware-uninstall-tools.plto uninstall VMware tools.
Except there is no such script anywhere on my Ubuntu vm.
Any advice how to do this removal?

Created a simple bash script to remove VMware Tools;
sudo apt remove open-vm-tools sudo rm -r /etc/vmware-tools sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/open-vm-tools.service sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/vmtoolsd.service sudo rm -r /etc/systemd/system/open-vm-tools.service.requires sudo rm -r /etc/vmware-tools sudo apt autoremove -
