Initially, Windows Insider opens and I am able to log in, and then about minutes later Windows 10 Insider freezes, and about 30 seconds later the parts of VMware dedicated to the open virtual machine also freeze. This results in an inability to pause, suspend, shut down or restart the guest OS Windows Insider. The only way to resolve the issue is to reboot the Host desktop PC. The link suggests that this can be resolved by preventing Hyper-V from running however, in my case, hyper-V is not enabled.
I have been testing Windows using the Insider program from within VMware for several years, and would like to continue doing so. I might mention that the incompatibility issue referred to is present in the latest version of VMware V15 according to reports elsewhere on the Web.
Dell G-Sync Hz Monitor. My host is Windows components which use hyper-v prevent virtualbox guests from starting in I suspect that this problem would affect vmware as well. I did the following to get virtualbox guests working.
Then, in an elevated cmd window, type:. Then reboot again and try your vmware tests. If you want to turn hyper-v stuff back on, you can use:. It is reported that Microsoft and VMware are working together to find a solution; and that it will eventually be corrected via a patch.
Two or three days later, all started out OK, and then about three minutes into use, the VM froze. I will try the solution suggested by anonymous in the previous post and will report back. Windows 10 Insider Preview Thanks for letting us know. The Windows Hypervisor Platform feature is supposed to provide an api allowing virtualization software like vmware and virtualbox to run in a hyper-v environment.
There is also a Virtual Machine Platform feature in and I think MS appears to be using hyper-v technology for more and more containers, security, the new sandbox, wsl2, who knows what else so lots of vmware and virtualbox users will be running into this. Running VMWare Workstation Does anyone have anything more to add — please?
Did you try uninstalling the latest update? And after you roll it back, install a current build of VMware Workstation Yes, it should! Ancient versions that were made for the Windows of their time must still run with any other Windows updates that are made later.
They are required to be backwards compatible. And precisely why not? Is the concept of backwards compatibility out of the window? Any updates to the Windows platform HAVE to be compatible with all the windows software that came before it.
Are you suggesting that Windows uses have to get used to having Microsoft rendering all their windows software useless whenever Microsoft feels like it? The old software MUST continue to work, even though not taking advantage of the full functionality available with the Windows upgrades until newer versions of the SAME product get released to take advantage of them. Upgrading Windows to break compatibility with previous software is simply unacceptable.
I believe reality speaks differently. But there seems to be a workaround in this case,. See reply above. Versions prior to vMWare 15 no-longer work with the latest version of Windows I am not sure if posting this is in violation of any Ask Woody rules, but Office Watch is a free site, so I believe it is OK to post the following extract from the Latest Office Watch news letter:.

I suspect that a recent Windows Update put paid to that. The latest Version 15 VMWare Workstation Player free for home use only works just fine, provided you only need t run one VM at a time which is my situation.
Rename the program, a single character will do. Then update any shortcuts to the program. Right-click on the renamed file and choose Pin to Start.
Restart Workstation from the renamed. EXE and it works normally again. I just wanted to add to this discussion with my experience being able to keep running vmware workstation 12 Pro version When Windows 10 prompted to install the update to release I was warned it could not proceed due to the incompatibility of Vmware.
Today I succesfully ran the upgrade by doing this: — When the windows installer complained about vmware, I renamed the vmware installation directory. This fooled the windows updater and it was able to continue.
Windows gives a warning message though. While I was reading the message deciding what to do, the main window of wmware appeared anyways.
I was able to start my virtual machines. I checked whether it has networking capabilities and everything seems fine. The virtual network drivers apparently survived the windows update. Hope this helps other people out there that would like to keep using their older vmware workstation pro software. Uninstall vmware Upgrade to windows Diable Hiper-V from windows features.
