On Windows guest operating systems with autorun, this should cause the installer to initiate the Tools installation which will need user input to complete. On other (non-Windows) guest operating systems this will make the Tools installation available, and a a user will need to do guest-specific actions. On Linux, this includes opening an archive and running the installer. To monitor the status of the Tools install, clients should check the Tools.Info.version-status and Tools.Info.run-state from Tools.get
