Fusion Pro Download Issue

Just bought a license for Fusion Pro.  Been trying to download it for about an hour.  No matter which download link I click I end up at the Fusion Player download page.  Posting here because the virtual assistant is useless, there are no chat agents available, and I'd really like to get started on a project currently on hold because of this.

Thanks for any help/advice/criticism/whatever.  Been using Fusion approximately forever and really love the product.

Best,

Tony Lima

Hi Tony,

Eh... there is no separate VMware Fusion Player version.
The Pro version and the Player version are the exact same version.
The difference between the two is the license that you apply, the bits that you download are the same.

Sadly, that downloads the Player version.  I'll experiment to see if I can use something like that to get the Pro version.

Tried an incognito or private browser window?
