Special Note:
- If you are running old version of vmware workstation pro like version 15.x or 16.x and you have so many vm’s running, then you can easily upgrade to vmware 17.x series. Just you need a license key of vmware workstation pro 17. After providing the license key after installing vmware 17, you will get all of your vm back as it was before. But without license you should not start the upgradation.
- The new version solves the vm unsupported processor blue screen of death problem.
