Is High Sierra really required by Fusion 11.5 ?

I just updated to Fusion 11.5.0 on a Sierra (10.12.6) machine, and it seems to work fine... so I'm wondering about the High Sierra requirement as specified in the website: Does it mean that it really requires High Sierra for properly working, or that only High Sierra was tested?

It's not explicitly required (i.e. Fusion should run without crashing or errors preventing you from launching VMs), but we don't test on 10.12 anymore, only 10.13 and up. If something goes wrong and you call Support, they'll help but likely be unable to resolve if it's a defect.

Hi ,

If you want to run any applications/games which require DirectX10.1 support in Windows guest, you have to upgrade your host MacOS to High Sierra then.
