Tech: Using VMware ESX Server Web Access with Internet Explorer 7

Steve Sinchak published a nice trick to view the ESX Server 3.x Web Access management interface with new Microsoft Internet Explorer 7:

  1. Open up notepad
  2. Copy the text below into notepad:

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\application/x-vmware-console]

    “Extension”=”.xvm”

  3. Save the file with a .reg file extension and then import the file into your registry
