And from what I can determine online, there are no technical problems with running the software that the update introduced, just a windows blocklist for old software. Workstation Player 14.1.7 had been working fine for us on 1903 until the recent KB4524147 update.

If you want the full 18 months of service out of VMware Workstation then the trick is to buy early, otherwise you have to be lucky or stay on the older Windows 10 train for a bit longer. and -yes- Workstation 15 is end of life in May again. I expect the same type of release schedule for release 2003. Which -unfortunately- is 2 months after VMware Workstation 14 went End Of Life. While the latest Windows 10 is called "1903" that's not when they released it, it was released in May 2019. So the thing to take into account is the Life Cycle document: At least that is how it has worked in the past. The way it works is that as long as the VMware product is not end of life around the time of the next Windows 10 release, then VMware will/should bring out a new version of Workstation that supports this Windows 10 version. Until Windows 10 that was actually quite a rare event, nowadays with Windows 10 it is pretty common for Microsoft to make a change that breaks VMware Workstation.

The problem is that VMware has no control over if Microsoft will introduce a change to a new Windows 10 version that breaks VMware.

From what I can see as a daily visitor of the forums since 2006 it is not worse than Workstation 14. The forums don't give you the best view of how well the product works, people only come here when they have a problem. Workstation 15 is more problematic according to the forums. VMware Workstation 14 _is_ end of life since 6.Įdit 2: re. Perhaps Mikero can chime in with some more details?Įdit: I take that back. However that's all opinion and speculation. I hear you, but I don't work for VMware and just relay with what I have seen happening in the past.Īs Microsoft will indeed be pushing out the updates now and as Windows 10 Home users delaying the update is problematic (it can be done apparently, but only if they are on 18.03 and it isn't the default) I agree with you that Workstation 14 - which is not yet end of life- should add support for Windows 19.03
