VMware Workstation, available in Pro (for Windows or Linux) and Player edition, is a type 2 hypervisor that allows users to run multiple virtual machines on a single device, with Pro offering advanced features like snapshots, cloning, and network configuration. As of November 2025, both versions are free for all users.
To help youeasily identify outdated installations, we’ve created a custom Audit Report. This report locates all Workstation versions in use, and shows how much longer they will be supported so you can plan updates accordingly. You can read more in our VMware Workstation end-of-life blog post.
