Manage virtual machine snapshots

- [Voiceover] VMware Workstation supports snapshots,…which capture the status of your VM…at a specific point in time,…that allows you to restore it back to that point…with just a few clicks.…This is helpful if we need to revert back…to a fresh installation,…test the installation of risky software,…or if you have a fatal error…that you need to roll back to a previous state.…To have some fun with this, let's get a little retro.…This VM is running Windows 3.1 on top of MS-DOS.…Windows 3.1 was released in 1993…and it represented the true mainstream adoption…of Windows on commercial personal computers.…

The thing with Windows and DOS back then though…is that it was easy to mess up your system…if you didn't know what you were doing.…So, we're going to do exactly that,…destroy the OS…and then recover to a previous point.…I first need to create an initial snapshot.…I just finished installing DOS in Windows 3.1…and I can save it at this point…so I can go back to a fresh installation.…To do this, I'm going to click the Add Snapshot button…
