Open VMX file in VMWare

I have Ubuntu-12.4 installed on VMWare and I want to edit .vmx file to enable KVM Virtualization

I have seen a tutorial how to edit but can't find where the .vmx file is?

The .vmx file is typically located in the directory where you created the virtual machine.

In Linux, run the vmware-cmd -l command to list the full path to all registered .vmx files.

In Windows XP and Server 2003, the default location for the file is:

C:\Documents and Settings\your_user_name\My Documents\Virtual Machines\virtual_machine_name.vmx

In Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008, the default location for the file is:

C:\Users\your_user_name\My Documents\Virtual Machines\virtual_machine_name.vmx
