Download VMware Fusion 13.0.0

VMware has released version 13.0.0 of Fusion. Fusion is to macOS what Workstation Pro and Workstation Player are to Windows and Linux. The program allows to create virtual machines on macOS machines. In this way it is possible to run, for example, Windows, Linux or Solaris alongside the existing operating system. New in version 13 is, among other things, that the program now also works on a machine equipped with an Arm processor. There is also a virtual TPM 2.0 module, which enables support for Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022, among others, and there is support for OpenGL 4.3 and Windows Display Driver Model 1.2.
