VMware Fusion could not find any Boot Camp volumes on this Mac.

[00FusionUser00]

Hi,

Had to re-install everything from scratch as my Mac came back from a hardware repair. Fusion cannot see my Bootcamp Windows 10 N partition, erased and installed bootcamp three times and still no luck. Info on my setup:

Fusion Pro version: 8.5.6 (tried 8.5.5 and 8.5.3 with same results). 8.5.3 is what I had before my Macbook crashed and it worked with no issues with the same setup.

Macbook: Early 2015, 13" 2.7, 16GB RAM

Host OS: Sierra, fully updated

Bootcamp OS: Windows 10 Pro N, March 2017 version

Cleaned up all VMWare folders in / and ~ each time.

Any help is appreciated. Let me know if I can grab any logs.

VMware seems to have stopped development of Fusion. While I am a hard core VMware supporter for the enterprise, the best option may be to use Parallels, as it works perfectly with the very last and most recent version of Apple macOS Sierra, version 10.12.5.

Huh?

VMware seems to have stopped development of Fusion

That's why they released 5 new Fusion versions this year alone then?

Huge thank you, that worked perfectly for me and you just saved me so much work of having to run off 2 separate windows environments on my mac.
