I have created VMware Fusion 11.5.1.pkg file by using Composer/Package tool. while I tried to install it in new Mac installed successfully when opening the VMware Fusion getting attached error. if I use the same package for upgrade the VMware fusion from older version to new version(11.5.1) it works.


Yes, just right click on the virtual machine file (on your mac), select "Show Package Contents", then select the first file that says "Your Operating System" -s001.vmdk or the biggest file and copy it to your flash drive or whatever you are going to use to transfer it to your windows machine. That .vmdk file is compatable with vmware workstation and virtualbox (a free version by oracle, but you need hardware acceleration).

I am trying to configure a VMware VM to have a non-persistent disk. This is as simple as making the disk independent f the VM, and selecting the non-persisent option. How do I do this in VMWare fusion?


So, I thought of trying VMWare fusion, but while downloading it I noticed that its size is around 3x that of UTM. While trying to install it, it started asking for admin privilege. This made me think as UTM never needed admin privilege. I chose not to install it for the time-being as I didn't find any appropriate answers to my doubts.


So I would like to ask people who have used fusion whether my resolution/graphics quality problem will be fixed in VMWare fusion? And also a decent overview of perks of using VMWare fusion is appreciated. Also if any tech geeks know the reason behind the need for admin privilege feel free to share. I would like to know if it can lead to security issues for Mac or not.


I happen to use Parallel's Desktop Pro 19.1 on my Intel iMac and not VMware. I keep the VM guests installed on a external Crucial X8 (1050 MB/s) SSD and connected by a USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 cable to my TB3 port. Crucial now has an X10 Pro model that features 2000 MB/s USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 performance. I am considering the free VMware fusion for my M2 Mac mini Pro as that is my primary desktop and one subscription to Parallels is enough.


If your using vmware fusion, do not upgrade to sonoma, as there is a extremely serious bug.

The vertual machines do not work at all with voiceover enabled.

If you try and start up a vertual machine and voiceover is enabled, as soon as you press start up, the vm will start up for a second, and then it'll crash and take you back to the, start up, button.

However if you try starting up the vertual machine and voiceover is off, the machine will run without any problems whatsoever. However if you then enable voiceover once again when you got the vvertual machine to run, it'll crash once again, and bring you back to the start up, button.

I already reported this bug to apple accessibility, however I need help from yoll here, to report it as well, as this is a extremely serious bug.

Also, using a 2018 macbook pro, intel i7, 32gigs of ram, however that's not of much importance I think.

Edit, here's a screen recording of the bug.

Also, here's the feedback id, for reference,

FB13303957

If anyone else reports this, reference that feedback ID.

Also for reference, I've tried absolutely everything; completely uninstalling vmware fusion, complete reinstall of macos sonoma, upgrating to the latest version, formating of the drive and reinstalling sonoma completely and reinstalling vmware fusion... Nothing works. And when testing with a sighted person, I was told, that when voiceover was off and he tried starting the vm, no problems; but when he did the same with voiceover on... It didn't start at all. It just made as if it wanted to start, and completely crashed.






I cant figure out out how. Do you have a contact email or something so I can report the bug to vmware as well as apple accessibility? I tried using technical support, but cannot do so as apparently I do not have any qualifying products, I'm using vmware fusion player with personal license, so I guess that's why I cannot file a technical support request, so is there any other way of contacting vmware?




I have now tried the obvious solutions like restarting Network Manager, assigning fixed IP address, installing VMWare tools from Fusion repository; no change. Installed Ubuntu again in a new VM; same result. More desperately, I tried to re-generate the NetworkInterfaces.plist on the Mac; no change.



The logfile vmware.log is quite a huge document, I found some relevant messages, but I can't figure it out. Has anyone here ever dealt with this not entirely unknown problem and also come to results?
