Right, so if you want to download the latest VMWare Fusion Pro for macOS (v13.6.1) (free for personal use), here’s how you can do it with zero hassle from their software update site:

softwareupdate.vmware.com/cds/

No need to create an account, etc.

(Don’t you love *enterprise-level* security?)

If you want to find some other download, just do a web search for the file name you see on the support site (see previous post).

So you can follow these instructions to get closer to a download but if you think you’re actually going to be able to download it… oh, cricket, you have so much more to learn…

What a shitshow, Broadcom.

At this point, if your time is worth anything, it’s actually more economical to pay for Parallels than to try and download VMWare Fusion for “free”.
