Hi,

I agree with scott28tt, Workstation Pro 14 is not compatible with Windows Server 2019. In fact, when you create the VM it does not appear in the list.

However I downloaded workstation 14 and with Windows Server 2019 ISO I did a test. The setting of the VM I entered as Server 2016 and I managed to install Server2019 without problems.

I am attaching some screenshots.
