Workstation 14 pro causes crashes with the new Windows 10 version

Hello,

After updating Windows 10 from 1709 to 1803 version. Workstation with an ESXi virutal machine is unstable. The OS Windows crash, a blue screen with the following text "critical process died" appears. I join to this discussion the logs of Worsktation, the logs of the virtual machine with the vmx file and the logs of windows (system and application).

How could I fix this problem ?

This issue is not solved.

Even with the latest Windows update.

I am running a Linux host with Workstation 14.1.2 / build 8497320

and a Windows 10 guest with all  latests update (6.6.2018).

This guest worked well for over a year, but since abt 2 weeks

Windows simple stops without any message. In a fraction of a second windows disappears

and Workstation shows the start-screen with a windows not running.

Then I start it again, and after a random time (some minutes) the guest is stopped again.

I have another Linux PC running Workstation 12.5. Here the same VM is working without any problems,

so I think it's not a Win10 issue, it is a Workstation 14.1.2 issue.

new Information:

I uninstalled 14.1.2

udn installed 14.1.0

and everything works stable as before, no Windows crash.

So it looks like Workstation 14.1.2 has a stability problem.
