Hi Folks,
I've seen this issue discussed a load and have been through various attempts to fix it but none have been successful. Essentially my VMWare Workstation 16.1.2 build-17966106 fails to boot any Windows based VMs. It can boot Debian/Ubuntu/Kali no problems at all but as soon as I go to boot a windows virtual machine the application fails with attached error message. I've included the dmp file(renamed to .pdf as it doesn't allow attachment of .dmp!) from example VM and also log files for assistance. Any advice/help would be much appreciated. For context my host OS info is and I have WSL2 running and working(I have tried it with and without WSL2 and/or Hyper V enabled/disabled but to no avail).
