Thanks for your reply.
This is a part of the automated development process to build OVA using Packer.
When I use Packer on the host Windows it stuck on building vmx file.
Nothing happens afterward, it's just hanging at this step.
Spoiler
==> vmware-iso: Configuring output and export directories...
==> vmware-iso: Creating required virtual machine disks
==> vmware-iso: Building and writing VMX file
==> vmware-iso: Creating required virtual machine disks
==> vmware-iso: Building and writing VMX file
and I think this response is probably the case for that:
If you're running packer on a corporate machine, you may have a security suite installed that interferes with vmrun and prevents it from returning.
and I don't have any kind of administration over Antivirus tools on windows to disable it.
So, I ended up using WSL2 to solve this issue.
