Heyo! Forgot to attach the error-- lol-

Which VMware product does this relate to?

I couldn't find it on the "select product" list, but its VMware Workstation 16.2.4.

There is an area for Workstation Pro, I've reported your post to the moderators so they should move it - the {code} forums are for SDK matters.

Hey. Checking in, have you got any info yet? I just downloaded ver 17.0.0, and i still have this error.

At the risk of asking the obvious, did you:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install gcc build-essential

?

Yes but ill try again.

it did it again

Perhaps a permission problem?

Nope. It downloads the things when im not root.

but ill try root

Same thing. it says its same version.

i am also using gcc 9 but same error.

Well, I don't know. My host is  Debian 11.5 and after installing gcc 10.2.1 and build-essential, all goes well.

Are you running as root (sudo)?

I am out of ideas.

Lou

huh. Im not using linux on my chromebook cuz it takes up lots of space but idk why its doing that.

Is Workstation supported on Chromebook? It is not listed here:

https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/80807

it is using the linux dev enviorment lol. it uses debian 11.5

Have you tried with the newest Workstation version?

OK. Color me confused. I thought you said your weren't running Linux.
