http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1017838 This video provides steps for manually uninstalling VMware Fusion. These steps entirely remove VMware Fusion from your Mac. These steps are performed using VMware Fusion 3.0, but the same basic steps apply to earlier versions of VMware Fusion. If you intend to re-install VMware Fusion after the uninstall, ensure that you have your serial number because you will need it when re-installing. Also, you must quit VMware Fusion prior to attempting the uninstall. If you have VMware Fusion open, the uninstall fails.

  • dose anyone know if when you uninstall Vmware if it also removes the partition which was created with it? I have Vmware installed right now on my mac, but i want to remove it and make a partition with boot camp. I just want to make sure the 30G or so partitioned to Vmware will be returned to me...

  • @MasterOfGameplay I think you gotta go to your Home Library (click on your name not on your hard drive) for the receipts and preferences

    For uninstall he clicks on Macintosh HD, for Receipts/Preferences he clicks on "Kevin"
