Manually Download does not work

Hi,
the manually Download of ESXi ISO Image (6.5.0a) does nor work on page https://my.vmware.com/en/group/vmware/evalcenter?p=free-esxi6.
Is there another way to get the file ?

Regards

Hi

If you are downloading for the first time you should have similar screenshot like below.

Make sure to register first by clicking on the blue Register button or the Register Here link

Once registered, you should be able to see the download packages and can download the binaries

Other method to download VMware software is to use the VMware Software Manager

Figured out. I used a guest wifi and problem solved. Some verification from the website was getting blocked by the firewalls. 

Thank you very much for your fast and complete response.

I had the same issue. You need to whitelist my.vmware.com in ublock origin and/or Pi-Hole (or any other flavor used).

Yep, it was pihole blocking for me too, thanks for the clue!
