• Support for Large Virtual Machines: Can create large virtual machines with up to 32 CPU cores, 128 GB memory, 10 TB virtual disk, and 8 GB video memory, fully utilizing hardware resources.
• Native Support for Windows 11: Through integrated virtual Trusted Platform Module (vTPM) and fast encryption, Windows 11 virtual machines can run smoothly on Intel or Apple Silicon Macs.
• Sandboxed Secure Environment: Can configure disabling some integration features between host and virtual machine to achieve operating system-level isolation and enhance overall security.
• Powerful Graphics Processing Capability (Intel Platform): On Intel Macs, provides DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.3 graphics support for Windows and Linux virtual machines, and can further enhance graphics performance with external GPUs (eGPU).
• Professional Virtual Network Configuration: The Fusion Pro version allows users to create complex custom virtual networks, set independent subnets, MTU, NAT port forwarding, and network simulation to meet advanced network testing needs.

II. Main Updates in Version 13.6.0

• Security Enhancements: Introduces a more efficient XTS encryption scheme to replace the original CBC mode, providing strong encryption protection while reducing performance overhead.
• Simplified Windows 11 Installation: For Apple Silicon Mac users, Windows 11 guest operating systems can now be downloaded and installed directly through the Fusion user interface.
• Enhanced Virtual Machine Portability: Supports importing and exporting virtual machine OVF files with vTPM devices, facilitating virtual machine migration and deployment.
• Expanded API Functions: The VMREST API service now supports power management operations (such as power on/off, suspend, etc.) and status queries for encrypted virtual machines.
• Bug Fixes and Improvements: Resolved multiple known issues including UI crashes caused by SSH connections, incorrect display of virtual machine encryption types, inability to re-encrypt after changing disk split values, and screen misalignment of Windows 11 virtual machines on Apple Silicon.

IV. Detailed Installation Tutorial

4.1 Pre-installation Preparation

Before starting the installation of VMware Fusion Pro 13.6.0, please confirm that your Mac meets the following minimum requirements. The system version must be macOS 11.0 Big Sur or later. In terms of hardware, both Intel and Apple Silicon chips can run it. Ensure the hard drive has at least 5GB of available space for installing the software itself.

4.2 Download and Installation Steps

Step 1: Obtain the VMware Fusion Pro 13.6.0 installation package from the download link provided on this site. Step 2: Double-click the downloaded .dmg file, and you will see “VMware Fusion.app” in the pop-up window. Step 3: Drag it onto the adjacent “Applications” folder icon and wait for the file copy to complete.

4.3 First Launch Setup

After copying is complete, go to the “Applications” folder, find and double-click to open VMware Fusion. The system may prompt “from an unidentified developer,” which is macOS’s security mechanism. You need to go to “System Preferences” > “Security & Privacy” > “General” and click “Open Anyway” to allow it.

4.4 Activation and Licensing

After the software starts, an activation window will pop up. Enter the license key we provide and click “Continue.” After successful activation, you can start creating your first virtual machine. The whole process is very smooth and can be done in a few minutes.

4.5 Creating Your First Virtual Machine

In the main interface, click the “New” button. You can choose “Install from disc or image” or “Get Windows from Microsoft.” For beginners, installing from an ISO image file is recommended. Select the Windows or Linux ISO file you have prepared, and follow the wizard prompts to allocate CPU, memory, and disk size.

V. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

5.1 Q: How is the performance of VMware Fusion running Windows on Apple Silicon Mac?

A: On Apple Silicon Macs, VMware Fusion runs ARM versions of Windows 11 through virtualization technology. Daily office work and most applications run smoothly, but complex x86-architecture games or software cannot run. The performance is quite good and fully meets development and testing needs.

5.2 Q: After installation, why can’t the virtual machine connect to the network?

A: This is usually because the virtual network configuration is incorrect. You can check VMware Fusion’s preferences. In the network adapter options, set the virtual machine’s network connection mode to “Shared Network (NAT).” This way, the virtual machine can access the internet through the Mac’s network connection.

5.3 Q: How to drag and drop files from Windows to the Mac desktop?

A: Ensure you have installed and started VMware Tools. After installation, you can find “Install VMware Tools” in the “Virtual Machine” menu. After installation is complete, restart the virtual machine to enable seamless integration features such as file drag-and-drop and clipboard sharing.

5.4 Q: The virtual machine becomes very laggy after running for a while. What should I do?

A: First, check the Mac’s memory usage. If the Mac has insufficient memory, try closing some unnecessary background applications. Second, in the virtual machine settings, appropriately increase the number of CPU cores and memory allocated to the virtual machine. Finally, ensure the virtual disk has enough remaining space.

5.5 Q: Can I run multiple virtual machines simultaneously in Fusion?

A: Of course. VMware Fusion Pro supports running multiple virtual machines simultaneously. However, note that this consumes a lot of Mac hardware resources. It is recommended that your Mac has at least 16GB of memory; otherwise, running multiple systems simultaneously will seriously affect performance.

5.6 Q: How to back up my virtual machine?

A: Backing up a virtual machine is very simple. You just need to find the virtual machine file package (usually ending with .vmwarevm) and copy it directly to an external hard drive or cloud storage. It is recommended to perform backup operations after shutting down the virtual machine to ensure data consistency.

5.7 Q: After upgrading to the latest version, can virtual machines from older versions still be used?

A: Generally, they are compatible. VMware Fusion 13.6.0 can open and run virtual machine files created by older versions. However, to obtain the best performance and new features, it is recommended to update VMware Tools within the virtual machine accordingly after upgrading.

5.8 Q: Why can’t my Windows 11 virtual machine be installed?

A: Installing Windows 11 requires meeting TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot requirements. In VMware Fusion 13.6.0, when creating a Windows 11 virtual machine, the software automatically enables the vTPM module. If you manually create a virtual machine, please ensure that “Virtual TPM Device” is enabled in the “Processors & Memory” settings.

5.9 Q: Software activation failed, prompting invalid key. What should I do?

A: Please first confirm whether the key you entered is complete and correct, paying attention to case sensitivity. If confirmed correct but still prompts invalid, the key may have been used or belongs to another version. Please contact our customer service to obtain a new valid activation code.

5.10 Q: How to completely uninstall VMware Fusion?

A: In addition to moving “VMware Fusion.app” from the Applications folder to the Trash, you also need to clean up related support files. It is recommended to use a professional uninstall tool, or manually delete VMware-related folders under ~/Library/Preferences/ and ~/Library/Application Support/.
