suspending vmplayer


Hi
I am not sure if this is the right place for this post but
I have recently downloaded VMplayer and installed a linux virtual machine on it. my question is : can I suspend the player when I am shuting it down so when I opening it again it will still be in the exact same way a I left it?

Thanks

Try taking a snapshot of the VM. I have the free VMWare Server, but for me I have a Menubar that says "Snapshot" then I go to Take Snapshot...
When you want to go back it to, you can go to Snapshot -> Revert to Snapshot.

Or...
Try right-clicking on the tab of the VM and select "Suspend"
