I am running Windows 7 using Fusion 5.03, on a 2010 MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion. Over the past few months I keep getting the error message:
VMwareFusionneeds to storeuserpreferences and other information in the directory "~/Library/Preferences/VMwareFusion". Do you want to continue although VMware Fusion was unable to create that directory?".
There were some discussions in 2007 and 2008, but nothing recent. I regularly keep everything maintained and backed-up.
I have not noticed any particular problem in my virtual machine, and nothing seems to be locked. I simply do not wish to continue to have error messages running around loose.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
