Thank you! This helped. Hyper-V is not installed on my Windows 11 Pro machine (I checked features and it's unchecked).

The correct path for MY VMWare Player installation (ver. 17) is in this line:
powercfg /powerthrottling disable /path "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Player\x64\vmware-vmx.exe"

I got errors when I tried to copy/paste your command line, then I did some searching and found that in version 17, they got rid of "VMWare Workstation" and replaced it with "VMWare Player". Other than that, it helped (and disabling the memory integrity check.

It's still not FAST (I have allocated 8GB RAM and 4 VCPU's). But the important part is, I'm not seeing that lag I was seeing before.

Thanks again!
