@olivierlambert The problem with fully installing the tools is our antivirus solution SentinelOne. Simply pausing the agent + reboot gave the XenTools the possibility to install succesfully. After a succesfull installation, enabling the SentinelOne agent again is possible without any other issues regarding the tools or drivers.
Thank you for that find, I was in the same boat.

Oh wow, I couldn't think it would have been helpful that fast!! I think I might update our documentation page about Windows tools and this issue.

Yes, take a look at ticket #7723929. There is also something about shrinking a Windows partition using Linux tools and avoid data loss that could be added to the doc.
