The computer just crashes wish the Green Screen of Death showing the error KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE anytime I try to run a Virtual Machine, no matter which guest operating system I try to run.
Same problem with VMWare Workstation 14 and 15.
Yes, for me the latest insider build resolved the issue!
I also got the same issue.:smileyconfused:
Same here
+1, same issue
If it's urgency, can use virtualbox first.
Same issue here. What's everyone else running on? My specs below:
PRIME Z270-K rev.00 Mainboard
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700 CPU @ 3.60GHz (Using onboard Intel HD Graphics 630 only)
Kingston RAM DDR4-2400 32 GB (KHX2400C15/16G)
Microsoft Windows 10 Professional 64-bit 1809 (Build 18290)
I'm running VMware Workstation Pro 15.0.2 on Windows 10 Pro Build 18290 and both Linux and Windows VMs, 32-bit and 64-bit, run without issue.
The host hardware is a circa 2012 Dell Inspiron 15 (N5050) laptop with a Core i5-2450M CPU, 8 GiB RAM, primary drive is an SSD for Windows OS (dual boot with LMDE3) and apps, and a secondary SSD in place of optical drive where the VMs live.
This may or may not be relevant, but this laptop is old enough not to have any hardware based security features such as TPM and SecureBoot.
What does the GSOD entry in the Windows Event Viewer say?
The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x00000139 (0x000000000000003b, 0xffffc081ec560e10, 0xffffc081ec560d68, 0x0000000000000000). A dump was saved in: C:\WINDOWS\MEMORY.DMP. Report Id: fd58491a-bdf0-41d4-b3b6-4a4379275284.
I have the same the same issue, I recovered back to 18282 and my VM's are working fine, so I have switched to the Slow lane until I find it has been resolved on the Fast lane.
I reverted overnight initially, but the preview reinstalled 18290, so I had to revert interactively, to allow me time to switch lanes.
Same issue for me with 14.5.1. Lenovo M900 (Core i7 2.8, 32gb Kingston, 1TB crucial SSD) and Surface Book Pro.
This issue was added to the Feedback Hub on 11/30 and was marked as "we've got it" by Microsoft within the past few days (https://aka.ms/AA3dxql). I'm skeptical
Windows recovery was my workaround. I'm holding at 18277 on my workstation but will keep my laptop in fast ring to test this issue against future updates.
I had also reported the bug on the Feedback Hub: https://aka.ms/AA3f8sd

I have the same issue after update. I tried installing VMWare 12.x, 14.x, currently have installed Pro 15.0.2 build-10952284 evaluation copy.
Each one with same result when I try to run guest windows crashes with dump info:

The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.

Bug check description: The kernel has detected the corruption of a critical data structure.
A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error. It is suggested you look for an update for the following driver: vmx86.sys (VMware kernel driver, VMware, Inc.).
Google query: vmx86.sys VMware, Inc. KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE
It clearly names VMware kernel driver as the culprit but updating to latest program version and running "check for updates" show no updates for vmx86.sys (VMware kernel driver, VMware, Inc.)
Any ideas someone?
I'm running:

Same problem. Haven't had any luck to figure out a workaround.
EDIT: Same problem with Win 10 build 18298
Problem persists after updating to Build 18298
With build 18282 expiring on the 14th December, this will kill my laptop for VMWare Workstation Player, which I use 90% of the time, so I have a vanilla OS on my host !
I was having the same issue after upgrading to 18290 on my AMD ryzen system, but I have a Dell laptop older with AMD that does not have the same issue, I reverted back to 18282 and my vmware works so I slowed does the build updates and skipped ahead yesterday to build 18298 and the same thing happened, I have no idea what this might be
