Greetings, As the title states, I have a Windows 10 Host & Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS Guest OS. I am using VMWare Player - 17.0.1 build-21139696 I also have VMware tools installed - When I try to go full screen and choose a layout, it doesn't work as expected. The VM does not go into full screen mode, it goes into a single display with scroll bars as shown below - I saw this post - https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Workstation-Pro/Ubuntu-22-4-LTS-Multi-monitor-when-cycling-results-in-sinlge/td-p/2923359 Disabling Wayland based on the recommendation would cause the VM to crash. I am at my wits end. Any help here would be appreciated. Thank you.

I was unable to enable virtualization on my Windows 10 VM on a Windows 10 host. I did have virtualization enabled in the BIOS, but that didn't seem to help. When I check the box to enable this feature, Virtualize Intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/RVI, I would get an error.  I want this feature enabled to run Docker in my VM. This is my system configuration: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.19045 Build 19045 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz, 4008 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s) American Megatrends Inc. 1.I0, 6/26/2018 Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 32.0 GB Realtek High Definition Audio Killer E2400 Gigabit Ethernet Controller Samsung SSD 850 EVO 500GB Samsung SSD 850 EVO 500GB WDC WD10EZEX-08WN4A0 I know my computer is more than capable of running a VM with virtulization. I did some searching, and I found several powershell commands out there, and running them did not help. I did some digging and realized that not all the Windows features that prevent using virtualization were removed. I resolved this problem by doing this: Open Turn Windows features on or off. Turn off the following features: Hyper-V Virtual Machine Platform aWindows Hypervisor Platform Windows Sandbox Windows Subsystem for Linux Save and restart the computer. Open VMWare Player Select the VM and edit the VM settings Enable Virtualize Intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/RVI   Once the virtual machine is up and running, install Docker. This will require installing WSL2 in the VM. If everything is done right, Docker should start successfully. Hopefully this will help someone out there running into the same issue.

Greetings, I am using 16.2.2 build-19200509. I have a Windows 10 VM on a Windows 10 host. Starting yesterday, when I am using the Windows 10 VM, I am getting the following error -   I went ahead and repaired the virtual disk by installing the Virtual Disk Development Kit, and running the repair command - vmware-vdiskmanager.exe -R "D:\VirtualMachines\WorkVM2\WorkVM2.vmdk" Having done this, I am still getting the following error - 2022-11-19T18:15:20.047Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa00 (0x107c87e) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:20.047Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa01 (0x107f2ee) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:20.203Z In(05) vmx End monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:20.204Z Wa(03) vmx Dumping core for vcpu-1 2022-11-19T18:15:20.204Z In(05) vmx Beginning monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:20.261Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa00 (0x107c87d) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:20.261Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa01 (0x107f2ee) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:20.419Z In(05) vmx End monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:20.419Z Wa(03) vmx Dumping core for vcpu-2 2022-11-19T18:15:20.419Z In(05) vmx Beginning monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:20.478Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa00 (0x107c87c) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:20.478Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa01 (0x107f2ee) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:20.637Z In(05) vmx End monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:20.637Z Wa(03) vmx Dumping core for vcpu-3 2022-11-19T18:15:20.637Z In(05) vmx Beginning monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:20.695Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa00 (0x107c87b) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:20.695Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa01 (0x107f2ee) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:20.851Z In(05) vmx End monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:20.851Z Wa(03) vmx Dumping core for vcpu-4 2022-11-19T18:15:20.851Z In(05) vmx Beginning monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:20.909Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa00 (0x107c87a) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:20.909Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa01 (0x107f2ee) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:21.075Z In(05) vmx End monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:21.075Z Wa(03) vmx Dumping core for vcpu-5 2022-11-19T18:15:21.075Z In(05) vmx Beginning monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:21.133Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa00 (0x107c879) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:21.133Z In(05) vmx CoreDump error: Read, page 0xa01 (0x107f2ee) Invalid access to memory location 2022-11-19T18:15:21.289Z In(05) vmx End monitor coredump 2022-11-19T18:15:25.439Z In(05) vmx Msg_Post: Error 2022-11-19T18:15:25.439Z In(05) vmx [msg.log.error.unrecoverable] VMware Player unrecoverable error: (vmx) 2022-11-19T18:15:25.439Z In(05)+ vmx VERIFY bora\lib\aioManagers\aioWin32Completion.c:2989 2022-11-19T18:15:25.439Z In(05) vmx [msg.panic.haveLog] A log file is available in "D:\VirtualMachines\WorkVM2\vmware.log". 2022-11-19T18:15:25.439Z In(05) vmx [msg.panic.requestSupport.withoutLog] You can request support. 2022-11-19T18:15:25.439Z In(05) vmx [msg.panic.requestSupport.vmSupport.vmx86] 2022-11-19T18:15:25.439Z In(05)+ vmx To collect data to submit to VMware technical support, run "vm-support". 2022-11-19T18:15:25.439Z In(05) vmx [msg.panic.response] We will respond on the basis of your support entitlement. 2022-11-19T18:15:25.439Z In(05) vmx ---------------------------------------- 2022-11-19T18:15:57.969Z In(05) vmx Exiting I am attaching the full log to the post.

I am using VMWare player 16.2.2 build-19200509. I have a Windows 10 Guest VM running on a Windows 10 Host. When I make the VM fullscreen, and attempt to use multi monitor setup, certain layouts are disabled - Certain multi monitor setups are disabled   The weird thing is, I have another Windows 10 guest VM, and this VM does not have the issue. I am not sure what could possibly disable the other layouts. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Hello, I want to use my VM for playing older games, which are not optimized for my widescreen monitor and Windows 10. I was wondering if there is a way for me to restrict the mouse to the window of the VM. Not being able to do this really breaks some games. I read posts about this being possible in VMWare Fusion, but I am not seeing anything for VMWare Workstation Player. Is this a paid feature? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!
