nvram file, but that re-enables SIP even if it boots me back into the regular OS. I’ve seen the recommendation to delete the. vmx config file to force it to go into recovery mode, disable SIP, and then delete the line from the vmx file, it continuously reboots into Recovery.

However if I add the the line macosguest.forceRecoveryModeInstall = 'TRUE' to end of the VM’s. I also tried following the instructions in this post: including what is suggested in the comments. I’m not sure if it’s because of changes to VMware Fusion, but I simply could not get it to read CMD + R at boot when powering on the virtual machine. The instructions from VMware are quite difficult to get just right. FYI, I have an MacBookPro11,5 mid2015 15'retina w/ 16GB and 1T SSD.I recently ran into a problem where I needed to boot into a Recovery Partition in VMware Fusion 10 to disable System Integrity Protection.

If the rolling back of the lates quality update works I wave. Ant the new runned with no problem until I upgraded do beta on windows 10 21H1 (July 6th release. I do have my old one stored, but I've already transferred my windows 10 license to the new one. Instead, you should click on Macintosh HD, and then click the Erase button. That’s not what you want to focus on here. Initially, it will focus on macOS Base System. All this just to say that Fusion 12 (12.1.2 here) does run on beta monterey, but I wasn't able to make my previous VM to run on it. Click the play button to start up the VM and boot into macOS’s recovery mode. I was able to run it on safe mode, though, but next I'll try to roll back the latest updates on troubleshoot restart mode. I used for the last three days with no issues, but today after restarting it, O got the spinning wheel for every guest windows action or click, or even for any fusion settings action or click, it lags and lags until it crashes. Having macOS host beta wasn't enough so I HAD to instal the guest windows 10 21H1 latest release ( build 19043.1083). I do it manually monthly, since time machine can shake things up, but with the Monterey beta I lost it. I don't have time machine backing up my VM's. I keep most of it on my Mac and despite the fact it is my main work machine (the macOS host), I do have an older working iMac and everything backed up, so I have where to run to if something goes really, really bad. And I had to start a new my widows 10 VM, which wasn't a big problem since I didn't have any critical work on it. I had the same problem after upgrading to Monterey beta.
