My Windows 8.1 PRO is hanging on shutdown/restart under VMFusion 6.0.2.
This was not the case under the previous version of Windows (8.0) and the previous version of VMFusion.
Found out that VMWare tools services can not be stopped.
After changing the startup of this service from automatic to manual, so VMware tools service is not running, the shutdown/restart of windows 8.1 works again as normal.
Does someone knows the reason of this behavior?
