Ok, I think I’ve somewhat managed to get the installation process started, after some playing around and having to allow my system settings access to my accessibility settings and turning the switch on to VMware Fusion, which I had no idea about. So I’ve allowed VMware access to everything it’s popped up so far, and now I’m at some weird window that’s saying something about “enter unity” which is dimmed, but when I try to move around, I get the message “VMware has no windows.” Can someone please explain this?
