Hi
I have Win 10 VM which was created about a year ago under Ubuntu 19.10 which worked fine.
I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 and unable to open this VM - VMWare window immediately disappears as soon as I start the VM.
My PC is based on Ryzen 7 3700 and I am using Player 16.
Here is the log I am getting:
