So in the end, at some time int he past I had half installed VMware 10.1... but it had the seurity conflicts I gues,. so I assumed it didn't work. But now I did get it working. And managed to export the Machines to OVA and OVP formats   And then did get them to load in Virtualbox, but I am having trouble making Virtualbox fullscreen properly on a 2560x1440 monitor. So it is kind of working.

So at some time in the past I had half installed VMware Fusion 10.1.6, but didn't activite the trial period or something? or it reset? I don't know. Perhaps after updating my MacOS to High Sierra. So I guess I thought it didn't work, but now I have the trial or VMware Fusion 10.1.6 activated (for 1 month). But can I still pay to authorize this version? I can run the old Windows Machines that I had made using VMware Fusion 6. But yeah, obviously only for the next month.

I am trying to "Resume" a windows image but get this message: "Cannot find a valid peer process to connect to" Mac0S 10.13.6 High Sierra (trial version that I just activated) VMWare Professional Version 10.0.1 What can I try to get it to load the suspended Machine, so that I can then try and make an OVA/OVP image? I just need to force it to shutdown, but I can't get it to load enough?    
Is there a demo / trial version that I could use to convert the existing Windows Images to that OVP format so that I could run them in VirtualBox perhaps?   https://www.howtogeek.com/125640/how-to-... See more...

So I would need to by VMware Fusion 12 Player ? at 150€ or VMware Fusion 12 Pro at 190€ then work out how to downgrade it to 11.5,  and then I presume I would have to reinstall windows and get everything working again as I want it on the new VMMachine? Or on that last point, is the old VMW Fusion 6.0.6 Windows image going to load/run on the 11.5 app? Perhaps I should just buy a cheap Mini PC with Windows installed instead, and use that. The performance will probably be similar.

I have an old version of VMWare Fusion 6.0.6 running on an old Mac, that I almost never use. Since updating MacOS to HighSierra 10.13.x I have not been able to run VMWare or Windows. Is there anyway to get this working again? Is there anyway to avoid buying a new version? (I only use VMWare to run an old Windows App that for various reasons, these days I almost never need to use. But something has come up and I might have to get it going again in a few weeks to do one little thing.) Is it presently (Jan 2022) possible to upgrade 6.0.6 to a version compatible with MacOS High Sierra?
