Hi,
Did you ever manage to get anywhere with this?
I have a similar post in the VMware Workstation Player community, but it has received no responses.
VMware Workstation Pro/Player v17 is listed as supported on Windows Server 2022 on the following page :-
https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/80807
I have even tried a later release (v17.0.1) and it still complains about Hyper-V during install.
Thanks.
