VMWare Can't run on Windows every update

Hi,

I am planning to buy a license VMWare Pro for GNS3 virtualization but one thing that prevents my plan.

Right now, I'm using a free version of VMWare Workstation Pro 14 and every time Microsoft Windows update, my player doesn't work. I always uninstalled the update just to make my VMWare works.

Any solution on how to fix this problem? Thanks in advance.

Microsoft blacklists more and more applications with their updates. With one of the latest Windows 10 update, VMware Workstation versions up to v15.0 were added to the blocked list. Unless you want to try the below mentioned workaround, you need to update to version 15.5.

Although blacklisted by MS, and not supported by VMware, you may try to unblock applications using MS's Compatibility Administrator. For how to use, and download it see e.g. Biohazard's reply at https://www.tenforums.com/virtualization/141820-vmware-workstation-pro-cant-run-windows-message-3.ht...

What's the output of bcdedit from the command line?

How is "hypervisorlaunchtype" configured?
