To organize all of your snapshots in a separate directory, you can create a directory in another location. You might want to change the working directory in the following situations. To specify a new working directory for a selected virtual machine, select VM > Settings, click the Options tab, and select General. Usually, in this cases, it’s better going with Workstation 12.Note: You cannot change the working directory for a remote or a shared virtual machine. On Windows, this file is located in C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware Workstationīut this solution it’s very slow, VMs takes minutes more to power-up and system seems too much slow. 
One option is simply to remove Workstation 14 and reinstall Workstation 12.īut a more interesting option came from the VMTN community (see this thread) So what about if your processor is not more supported (and you are sure that virtualization assisted hardware features are enabled)? Systems using Intel processors based on the 2010 “Westmere” micro-architecture (e.g. In addition, the following are supported: code-named “Hondo”, “Ontario”, “Zacate”, “Llano”)
Systems using AMD processors based on the “Llano” and “Bobcat” micro-architectures (e.g. 
Systems using Intel Atom processors based on the 2012 “Saltwell” micro-architecture (e.g. Intel Atom processors based on the 2011 “Bonnell” micro-architecture (e.g. VMware Workstation 14 support CPUs launched in 2011 or later except: Some old CPUs are now deprecated in Workstation 14 and the full list of system requirements can be found in the release notes: VMware Workstation 14 Pro Release Notes The Intel “VMX Unrestricted Guest” feature is necessary to run this virtual machine on an Intel processor.Īnd it’s not related to Hyper-V or new Windows 10 security enhancements (see this post), but simply that your CPU does not support “Intel VT-x” or “Intel EPT” hardware-assisted virtualization accelerations (or the same for AMD), that are now both mandatory for Workstation. This host does not support virtualizing real mode. With an unsupported processor, you can create, configure, move the VMs, but when you try to power on them, you will receive an error message like this: 
But drops too many CPU from its compatibility list and this means less support for old PCs or laptop. VMware Workstation 14 it’s a great product and adds several features from ESXi 6.5 and 6.7 (like NVMe support). This post is also available in: Italian Reading Time: 2 minutes
