The issue is licensing Fusion. Some kind of license is required, and
this is arranged during the web-based back and forth that leads to
package and license file downloads. The free license simply isn't
offered as an option. Only paid options are offered.

That is what I was afraid was the case. I had run into this shortly
after upgrading to Sonoma last year. Was hoping it had been corrected by
now.

Fusion is a paid product, but you can use Player for free if that meets your
needs. It doesn't do certain things like snapshots IIRC, but you can run a

Concerning the configuration, I'd customise the VM for the first time

Check your Startup Disk in the virtual machine settings. If you have not
installed an operating system yet, you can choose an installation disc or disc

Ok can you find an official link to that from VMware? Then I could
forward that to Apple Accessibility. I think doing that would be more
effective. If I do not need to go to version 13 of VMware, it would be
easier for me. I have been having trouble accessing anything on their

UTM is a graphical frontend to qemu. It's accessible, absolutely, once you have
a feel for it—certainly more than Parallels which needs you to use VOCR just to
get set up. Definitely give it a try and see if it meets your needs. The Spice
