V16.1 & V16.2 Both versions offer to upgrade an already upgraded VM

Installed Workstation Pro V16 on a Windows 10 pc with no problems.

Upgraded the PC to a clean install of Windows 11 - Installed Workstation Pro and checked my W10 VM's, all OK.

Upgraded a selection to Windows 11. But now every time I'm offered the choice before starting the VM to upgrade Tools.

This seems to be when the VM is encrypted and has a TPM installed via settings.

Bizarely, removing encryption and the TPM and installing the " managedVM.autoAddVTPM="software" " seems to have resolved the issue.

 

Windows 11 VM running, up-to-date , no encryption and no TPM added to the vmx file or in settings.

Windows 11 Host, v 21H1 (OS Build 22000.346
