I have VMware Workstation 9.0.1, and in my guests, which I'm trying to get to run as lean as possible, I see two copies of vmtoolsd.exe running, one by user SYSTEM and one by my logged-in username.
One is started by the command line ''C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Tools\vmtoolsd.exe'' with no parameters and the other adds the -n vmusr parameter.
Are both of these necessary? Are there features I can conisider deconfiguring that would eliminate one or both of them?
