.VMSG File Extension

A .VMSG file is a VMware Application Message File, created by VMware.

Open with VMware Workstation. Available for Linux and Windows.

What is a .VMSG file?

The .VMSG file extension is associated with VMware Application Message Files. These files are important for the VMware virtualization software, which is a program that allows you to run multiple operating systems on a single physical computer. The .VMSG files are essentially support files for this software.

These files are saved in a simple, readable text format. Inside a .VMSG file, you will find a collection of text strings. These strings are the messages or texts that appear within the VMware software's user interface. For example, when you use the software, any instructions, error messages, or information displayed are likely stored in a .VMSG file.

One of the key purposes of the .VMSG file is to make it easier to translate the VMware software into different languages. By having all the text strings stored in one place, it becomes simpler to create a version of the software in another language. You just need to translate the text within the .VMSG file.

If you need to open a .VMSG file, the primary programs to use are VMware Workstation or VMware Workstation Player. These are the applications that the .VMSG file is designed to support, so they naturally have the capability to open and utilize these files. Since the files are in plain text format, it's also possible that you could view them with a basic text editor, but to actually make use of the information in the way it's intended, you would need to use it in conjunction with VMware's software.
