Hi Doug 19. We run Fusion 12.1.1 newly installed on iMacs [Intel] on Big Sur 11.3.1. Goes through the motions of starting up and then hangs with a black screen. 3 iMacs, same issue. VMWare support not much help so far. Just migrated old MacMini files across to a new MacMini.

Fusion 8 ran OK on older macOS. Any suggestions?

Cheers,

iAndyMac

There's no problem running VMWare Fusion 12.1.1 on Intel Macs running Big Sur. It won't run on M1 Macs.
