The product complies with the VPAT Section 508 standard for persons with disabilities. Now the render can use DirectX 10.1 and OpenGL 3.3 even based on an integrated Intel GPU card. Vulkan API support has appeared on Workstation 16 for Linux. Vulkan Graphics Rendering Engine for Linux Hosts Sandbox Renderer allows you to separate the virtual graphics engine by giving it reduced privileges, making Fusion and Workstation platforms safer. This version perfectly complements the dark theme of Windows 10 build 2004. Workstation 16 has a dark Dark Mode UI theme available in both Pro and Player. The version supports connections to ESXi 7 and vCenter 7 to manage virtual machines, including their movement between hosts and compatibility with the virtual PC infrastructure. Users can allocate up to 8 GB of vRAM for the guest OS (for this, the virtual machine itself must have 16 GB or more of RAM). Workstation 16 supports running games and applications with Direct3D version 11 (aka DirectX 11) or OpenGL 4.1. This feature will also be available with Workstation Player. In addition to support for kind, vctl creates a docker-compatible socket for kind without modifying the container through its own implementation of containerd. Previously available in Fusion, it allows users to perform push, pull, build and run operations on OCI images, as well as deploy local Kind clusters to Kubernetes. On August 26, 2020, it became known that VMware announced versions of the desktop virtualization platforms Workstation 16 and Fusion 12.įor developers using containers, a command line utility - vctl has appeared.

Support for full and fast encryption modes has been implemented, allowing you to balance between higher security or performance.Added the ability to autorun virtual machines after loading the host system.

An updated virtual module is proposed that supports the TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module) specification.

Added support for WDDM ( Windows Display Driver Model) 1.2.

Support for OpenGL 4.3 is provided in virtual machines (Windows 7 + or Linux with Mesa 22 and kernel 5.16 is required).

Added support for guest OCWindows 11, Windows Server 2022, RHEL 9, Debian 11 and Ubuntu 22.04.Novemit became known about the release of the next release of VMWare Workstation Pro 17, a proprietary virtualization software complex for workstations, available among other things for Linux. VMware Workstation - a program that is designed for workstations, allows you to emulate a stand-alone computer in a working operating system environment and work with it as a regular system.
