macOS Recovery
Hello, I have two volumes, Ventura and Sonoma. Ventura is pretty much in good shape. Sonoma has some anomalies. One that is pretty consistent is the dock. Let's say there are 8 apps. Using VO right or simply right arrow, I might hear "2 of 8, 2 of 8, 4 of 8, 5 of 8, 6 of 8". Matters now what, I can change the order and still get the same response. If I activate the second instance ("2 of 8, 2 of 8"), that app will not open but the first instance will. Example. Mail is #2 and Messages is #3. VO reports both as "2 of 8". Instead of Messages opening, Mail opens. If I change the order of these two, the opposite behavior occurs. Confused? This anomaly is not consistent. I removed all apps and started adding some back. If I have some 20 apps, the anomaly will show up 2 or 3 times. While playing with this, when I opened a TestEdit document, the dock was fine. Closed thee app and the oddness came back. I have no idea what is at fault. Might doing a recovery fix this? What other options are there? Thanks. From E.T.'s Keyboard...

Are there any CPU options you could change, for example by allowing the VM to use all of the cores? I suspect this wouldn't work, but it would be worth trying any relevant configuration options. Otherwise, it's a VMWare bug report. I'm so glad I've left the Windows world - at least for now. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.

Windows Insider and VMWare Fusion
Hi, There is always that next wrinkle with this sort of stuff I suppose. As I think everyone knows, until recently VMWare fFusion wasn’t working right on silicon Macs and VMs would shut down immediately. The most recent updates, at least for betas, of the Mac OS resolved that issue so now I can install and run a Windows 11 VM using VMWare Fusion. The initial VM downloads an ISO for ARM from Microsoft and works. Now though, when I try and join the Windows Insider program on the machine I’m told the PC doesn’t meet the hardware requirements. The failing item is the processor. Interestingly, with Parallels, which starts with the equivalent ISO, I’ve had no trouble creating the VM and also joining the Insider program. The processor itself between the two VMs ends up showing differently inside of Windows. They are configured the same in the two VMs in terms of what resources the VMs are using. Has anyone else hit this and found a solution? -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
