Creating Virtual Machines

You can create virtual machines on a host operating system that Workstation Pro supports.

You can create a new virtual machine in Workstation Pro by using the New Virtual Machine wizard, clone an existing Workstation Pro virtual machine or virtual machine template, import third-party and Open Virtualization Format (OVF) virtual machines, and create a virtual machine from a physical machine.

Note: Workstation Pro does not provide any technical support for errors encountered during the in-place upgrade to any major versions of the Guest Operating System. If the operating system vendor identifies an issue with Workstation Pro, then VMware can provide assistance.
