In addition to the time synchronization setting, the Options tab of the VMware Tools control panel also includes two additional options which are specific to Windows guest operating systems.
When selected, the ''Show VMware Tools in the taskbar'' option displays the VMware Tools icon within the notification area of the Windows taskbar. Double clicking on this icon will invoke the VMware Tools control panel.
The ''Notify if update is available'' option causes the taskbar icon to be displayed with a yellow warning symbol to when an update to VMware Tools is available for installation from the host system. In the event that an update is available, the ''Update Tools'' button will be enabled and may be pressed to initiate the upgrade process.
