Good morning everyone I just installed Vmware Workstation PRO 16.2.1 on Windows 11 PRO 21H2 and I can't turn on virtual machines, I already looked for everything, it always indicates vcpu-0 error, someone already managed to run vmware on windows 11 or it was found with this problem and can I solve it?
regards

what hardware is in play here?
I do not have a solution, but I know that if WSL2 and Hyper-V is enabled for Docker Desktop, VMWare Workstation 16 cannot start a VM on Windows 11. I can only fix this by disabling the Hyper-V with this command:
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
When is VMWare going to provide guidance on how we can run both VMWare Workstation 16 and Hyper-V on Windows 11 -- especially since this was one of the apparent features we were supposed to get with this release?
Hi Mikero, I am trying to run windows 10 pro x64 Greetings
Hi kmaxwell
Make bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off and aub if it doesn't work,
might have to disable WLS2 as well
