## Upgrading to v1.x
It is **extremely important** that the VMware plugin is upgraded to 1.0.0 or
above. This release resolved critical security vulnerabilities. To learn more,
please [read our release announcement](https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/introducing-the-vagrant-vmware-desktop-plugin).
After upgrading, please verify that the following paths are empty. The upgrade
process should remove these for you, but for security reasons it is important
to double check. If you're a new user or installing the VMware provider on a
new machine, you may skip this step. If you're a Windows user, you may skip this
step as well.
The path `~/.vagrant.d/gems/*/vagrant-vmware-{fusion,workstation}`
should no longer exist. The gem `vagrant-vmware-desktop` may exist since this
is the name of the new plugin. If the old directories exist, remove them. An
example for a Unix-like shell is shown below:
```shell
# Check if they exist and verify that they're the correct paths as shown below.
$ ls ~/.vagrant.d/gems/*/vagrant-vmware-{fusion,workstation}
...
# Remove them
$ rm -rf ~/.vagrant.d/gems/*/vagrant-vmware-{fusion,workstation}
```
