If you mean Windows 7 as the host OS: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2129859

If you mean Windows 7 as the guest OS in a VM: https://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/search.php?deviceCategory=software&details=1&operatin...

Win7-64 as host or as guest ?
If you dont need Win10 guests and use slighly older hardware I would recommend to use WS 12.01 - which is a very good WS build ...

As a guest I would assume that it works well with all recent versions.
