I've got an old Mac running high Sierra that has been running Fusion rev 8.5.10 with a single virtual machine an old Windows 2000 system very successfully.
I have a new Mac running Catalina. I downloaded the trial of Fusion 11.5 to test to see whether it will run my old VM before I buy the upgrade.
I cannot get the new version of Fusion to even see my VM. I've tried moving the entire Windows 2000 folder that was located on the older mac in the folder vmware over to the new mac to its Virtual Machines folder.
However when I run the new version of Fusion and try to choose an existing virtual machine nothing shows up. I can search and se all the files in the Windows 2000 folder but they are all greyed out.
I had thought to try upgrading to 10 and then to 11 but I can't download the 10 version or at least I can't find it to try that.
Any ideas on how to get this working so I can test before paying for the upgrade?
