VMWare 16 problem with Windows 10 20H2

[Danxity]

I did a search about this problem and someone else had exact same issue except he didn't get further help because he was using MacOS.

Link: Problem with new version Player 16This problem is existing for me on Windows 10 Pro as host and guest VM.Issue: After updating host desktop to Windows 10 20H2. Enabling virtualization is not possible. Can't turn on vm anymore. See picture of the issue.

Hi,

In VM settings -> select "Processors" -> remove all checks in the checkboxes for "Virtualization engine".

Then at least your VM is most likely to run again.

But you won't be able to run nested virtualization in the VM.

Hi. Thanks for your reply. I forgot to mention yes I figured this out already right away.

My point is that the new update is lot letting us use Virtualization. I would like to have virtualization available for use. It was working with Windows 10 2020 update.

I rolled back to Windows 10 2020. It's all back to normal. 20H2 is unusable. It causes vmware 16 to lag way too much.
