Thank you for replying.
By your answer I wonder if you think I'm running BGInfo in my host machine. That's not the case here. I'm running BGInfo within the Windows VM that I open in Workstation or Player. So BGInfo is displayed in the VM's window, and since it just ran within the VM it seems like there should be an environment variable or WMI or whatever within the VM that shows the path to its virtual drive, settings, or something of that sort.
