Using inspiration from (and with apologies to) David Pogue's 'Missing Manual" series, I humbly present:

The Unofficial Fusion 13 for Apple Silicon Companion Version 2, 24-Nov-2022

The document that VMware didn't publish, and you didn't know that you needed. Until you do.

------

Updated content in Version 2:

URGENT: Version 2 of the Companion has been updated because of a significant issue discovered with Windows 11 ISO media built on macOS using the procedures in Version 1.. Guidance and procedures on how to successfully build ISO installation media for Windows has changed in Version 2 based on these discoveries.

Users wishing to use Windows 11 are strongly urged to use the procedures in Version 2 of the Companion (and later), especially if you are going to build ISO installation media on macOS.

A glossary of terms that may be unfamiliar to some users has been included in Version 2.

------

The Companion contains tips and techniques that were provided through the experiences of the broader Fusion community while running the Tech Preview releases on Apple Silicon Macs. It can save you searching the forum for frequently encountered issues.

The Companion may answer many questions that aren't covered by reading the VMware Fusion documentation. Take a look at it before you start creating VMs - you might find something that will make your life easier. If you have a question that you're thinking about posting in the forum, check out the Companion first - it may already contain an answer to your question.

Of particular interest to Windows users is the section on Windows 11 on ARM. This section is chock full of information, procedures, and screen shots that should help you be successful in the installation of Windows 11 on Fusion 13.

For you Linux users, you haven't been left out. There is plenty of content to help you as well, especially if you are an Ubuntu or Fedora user.

This document will be updated as the community experience with Fusion 13 grows and is discussed in the forums.

Enjoy and please post any comments or questions about the Companion to the Fusion forums.
