my VMware Workstation Pro Windows 11 vm is taking hours to take a single snapshot. During this time the CPU and memory usage spike and make the machine unusable. Sometimes it simply freezes until I force a reset. I have a 2022 Lenovo P1 with an i9 and 32 gigs of ram.
I originally had Hyper-V installed, but I’ve since removed it completely from my machine. I’ve also ran the power shell commands to fully remove it per a support article.
How can I fix this issue? The documentation says it should only take 30-40 seconds, not several hours.
I followed this KB article: https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Workstation-Pro/VMware-Workstation-and-Hyper-V-are-not-comp...
My cpu is set to 16 processors single core, 128 gigs storage, and 16 gigs of ram. All other settings were left default. Only one disk, no CD or other peripherals. I did install the “upgrade my virtual machine” package from the workstation menu. Virtualize Intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/RVI Is unchecked.
