The Virtual machine requested power-off due to a failure during initialization -- Failed to start the virtual machine

Hey guys,

I recently got this error message when I was trying to install Ubuntu into VMware Fusion.

First error message:

The Virtual machine requested power-off due to a failure during initialization

Second error message;

Failed to start the virtual machine

I tried to install windows 10 but same issue.

Could you please help me? Big thanks
