This thread and the links within may help: Only 25 clients can run on VMware Workstation Pro at the same time

Hi,

For VMware Workstation 15.x there's a 16 vCPU limit per VM when using the latest virtual hardware.

I'm not aware of any core limit at the host (the linked limit is due to a windows API limit and can be worked around by opening more than 1 UI)
