Secure Boot on Windows 10 Pro hosted on VMWare Fusion

Hi All

I've searched the web for the steps required to enable 'Secure Boot' in Windows 10 for a guest machine which runs on WMWare Fusion.  I have read the following

 

https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.security.doc/GUID-898217D4-689D-4EB...

Win10 secure boot inside vmware fusion – DiabloHorn

The first is not relevant to Fusion and the second suggests the following.  I have completed the first two steps but not really sure about the last step.  My machine is already built and if I try the steps on a new machine I can't add a TPM chip as it says UEFI firmware is required.

  • Enable EFI by adding the following to the ‘.vmx’ file
    • firmware = “efi”
  • Enable VT-x/EPT
    • can be found in setting under “Processors & Memory”, “advanced settings”
  • Choose OS type “Hyper-V (unsupported)

 

Can anyone point to the correct method to achieve this?

 

Kind regards
