Mac OS guest VM possible in Player or only in Workstation?

[mattad]

Is it possible to run an existing Mac OS v10.9 or v10.10 guest VM in VmWare Player v12.0.1 (on 64bit Win 7 host OS) or is this only possible in VmWare Workstation?

At least I saw a Mac OS v10.8.5 guest VM machine which runs successfully in VmWare player on a Win 7 64bit host OS.

Surprisingly a new Mac OS v10.9 or v10.10 guest VM machine could NOT be started on the same VmWare player on the same machine.

During startup it always freezes.

So what changed in VmWare Player that it seems not to accept newer macOS guest VMs any more?

Hi,

MacOS is only possible on VMware Fusion, as by Apple EULA it's only allowed to run on Apple branded Hardware.

So Apple doesn't allow you to run it on your Windows PC.
