VMware Workstation Unrecoverable Error: (vcpu-0)

Solution 1:

This issue appears to be caused by the setting that allows VMWare to work alongside Hyper-V. There are two fixes, if you want to use Hyper-V along with your VMWare solution, we need to set the core count and processor count to 1. enter image description here

This should solve the issues, but this isn't ideal.

The other option is to disable Hyper-V. I came across this when I was trying to run Faceit-AntiCheat Client. It needs Hyper-V to be disabled. If we follow the following steps we can disable Hyper-V and the VM should work fine.

  1. Click Start and search for Command Prompt
  2. Right-click on Command Prompt and then click Run as administrator
  3. If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue
  4. Then type: "bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off" Press enter
  5. Then type:reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceGuard\Scenarios\HypervisorEnforcedCodeIntegrity" /v "Enabled" /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f Press enter again.
  6. Restart your computer

Now you should be able to start the VM with the desired number of processors.
