# OpenGL 2.1 support for Windows 7 and Windows Vista guests
— Improves the ability to run graphics-based applications in virtual machines.

# Improved Graphics Performance
— Enhanced performance with better benchmarks, frame rates, and improved rendering on Windows 7 and Windows Vista guests allows you to run various graphics-based applications. In addition, major improvements in video playback enable you to play high-resolution videos in virtual machines.

# Automatic Software Updates
— Download and install VMware Tools and receive maintenance updates when available.

# Direct Launch
— Drag guest applications from the Unity start menu directly onto the host desktop. Double-click the shortcut to open the guest application. The shortcut remains on the desktop after you exit Unity and close VMware Player.

# Autologon
— Save your login credentials and bypass the login dialog box when you power on a Windows guest. Use this feature if you restart the guest frequently and want to avoid entering your login credentials. You can enable Autologon and use direct launch to open guest applications from the host.

# OVF 1.1 Support
— Import or export virtual machines and vApps to upload them to VMware vSphere or VMware vCloud. The VMware OVF Tool is a command-line utility bundled in the VMware Player installer. Use this tool along with VMware Player to convert VMware .vmx files to .ovf format or vice versa. VMware recommends that you use the OVF command-line utility. For more information, see the OVF Web site and OVF Tool User Guide.

# Eight-Way SMP Support
— Create and run virtual machines with a total of up to eight-processor cores.

# 2TB Virtual Disk Support
— Maximum virtual disks and raw disks size increased from 950GB to 2TB.

# Encryption Enhancements
— VMware Player includes support for Intel's Advanced Encryption Standard instruction set (AES-NI) to improve performance while encrypting and decrypting virtual machines and faster run-time access to encrypted virtual machines on new processors.

# Memory Management
— User interface enhancements have simplified the handling of increased virtual memory capacity.
