The last version of VMware Workstation that works on Windows Vista is 12.0.1
But this version as well as any older version has a problem with running on Intel's new CPU's, like 12th gen Alder Lake. Regardless of the host OS used,
guest Windows versions that are Windows 10 Redstone 1 and newer immediately BSOD and modern Linux kernels panic
The next version 12.1.0 fixes this issue, but it happens so that's the exact same version where the Vista version block was introduced.
Even global version overrides of the Extended Kernel and Second System don't help, so perhaps patching vmware files will be necessary
Due to server slowness, downtime, and other issues, Eclipse will be moving to a more stable and efficient platform that should result in much better stability. There is no timeline for this yet, just want you to know what's happening with all the downtime and I have a plan to fix it.
