UPDATE 05/2017: when updating VMware workstation, the suspended/paused OSX VM seems to work fine but won’t boot up again (e.g. after updating to the latest OSX version which requires a reboot).

IMPORTANT: (Note: in VMWare 12.5 i didnt have to do this anymore:) If you create a new VM using version 11 or 12 hardware VMware will stop and create a core dump.There are two options to work around this issue: 1. Change the VM to be HW 10 – this does not affect performance. 2. Edit the VMX file and add: smc.version = “0” |
Hint: the button “VM -> Install VMware tools” doesn’t work, just manually mount the “darwin.iso” file that has been downloaded by the unlocker and install the tools. Worked for me with OSX 10.12.2 also!
