I wouldn't know, however I did read somewhere that an older version of VMware (I think it was 12) works better with betas, and also that you should try setting the VM to 6.5-7.x compatibility mode. Try that.
please ignore my username i was 10.

Try to find an older version of vmware TOOLS. I've heard before that that works on certain builds. Not sure about Post-Reset builds but try the 6.5-7x version of VMware tools. You should be able to find it easily online.
I collect old laptops and mess with old software.

Well, this build works fine on newer versions of VMware Workstation, however you'll need version 11 or older in order to get DWM to function properly. Also, you're meant to set it to either 6.x or 5.x, not 6.5-7.x.MrTechNews123 wrote: ↑Fri Oct 23, 2020 12:15 pmI wouldn't know, however I did read somewhere that an older version of VMware (I think it was 12) works better with betas, and also that you should try setting the VM to 6.5-7.x compatibility mode.

Use the above link. Despite the Name, it works on builds as early as Neptune 5111.1.
