VMWare Workstation 15.5.6 Freezing on Windows 10 2004 (20H2)

Recently upgraded my host to Windows 2004 and after doing this. I have been experiencing Windows Workstation locking up/freezing on multiple VM's.  I have checked for updated drivers, etc.  But nothing has fixed it.  I ended up reverting back to Windows 10 1909 and the problems have gone away.

I am running:

Dell Precision 7530

Intel I9-8950 HK

64GB RAM

Windows 10 1909 64 Bit

Intel 630 UHD/NVIDIA P3200 Quadro Graphics Card

NVME Hard Drive

If you don't need Hyper-V features, the following workaround might help in Win 2004:

In an elevated command prompt, run bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off   and reboot.
