Hi Community,

Hi VMWare Fusion Team,

when will Windows 1903 be officially supported with VMWare Fusion 10.0.x?

Thanks!

You can install Server 2019 using a custom installation and choosing Server 2016.

However, this doesn't mean it's officially supported...just that it "may" work.

To be a little more specific:

- VMWare Fusion 11.0.3

- Host OS: Mojave 10.14.4

- Guest OS: Windows 10, version 1903 (RTM release from MSDN/VS-subscription)

     de_windows_10_business_editions_version_1903_x64_dvd_fd8d94a0.iso

- Expected behavior:

     Fusion detects Windows 10 1903 as "Windows x64" with an ISO installation

     Fusion works with NAT and Bridged networks

- Problems I'm facing:

     Fusion does not detect Windows install ISO as a "Windows x64" install medium. You have to manually set it as "Windows x64"

     Bridged network does not work at all (whereas NAT does)
