Windows 7 64 bit  won't run any .exe starting with VM*
In my Windows 7 Professional 64 bit machine, executable whose name starting with "VM" is getting terminated after starting the process. For eg: vmd.exe, vmtest.exe etc will be forcefully terminated once it is started its execution. But if I rename them to some other, it would execute without any issues. Looks very wired. Please help?

I suggest you use the Process Monitor to capture the details. Run the same .exe with and without "vm" name. Then compare the processes. See if there's any clue. Regards, MiyaMiya Yao TechNet Community Support

Do you have any software restriction policy applied to that machine?
