Is VMware tools present default on windows server 2012?
I recently had a image of Windows Server 2012 Standard created and could see VMware tools running in the system tray. On checking the Add/Remove Programs i could see VMware tools installed. So is VMware tools present in the vanilla build of Windows server 2012?

Windows Server 2012 itself doesn't come with software from VMWare installed. In a virtual environment, running a VM with Server 2012 as OS VMWare tools are installed from the host (if you select the option when it pops up.)
Microsoft is as far as I know not actively shipping VMWare software as they have their own virtualization format HyperV.
