  • I could not fix that, then I deleted that and installed "VirtualBox". Commented Jan 9, 2020 at 12:04

Basically it is trying to get the wrong url, as folders structure changed to support universal build instead of special build for x86.

This is how I fixed for me.

Edit file: \VMwareUnlocker3.0.4\gettools.py

Line 132 changed it from: urlcoretar = url + lastVersion + '/' + ARCH + '/core/com.vmware.fusion.zip.tar' to: urlcoretar = url + lastVersion + '/universal/core/com.vmware.fusion.zip.tar'

Then had to change also couple more lines (148,149,153,154) by adding (x86_x64) to the path cdszip.extract('payload/VMware Fusion.app/Contents/Library/isoimages/x86_x64/darwin.iso', path=convertpath(dest + '/tools/')) cdszip.extract('payload/VMware Fusion.app/Contents/Library/isoimages/x86_x64/darwinPre15.iso', path=convertpath(dest + '/tools/')) shutil.move(convertpath(dest + '/tools/payload/VMware Fusion.app/Contents/Library/isoimages/x86_x64/darwin.iso'), convertpath(dest + '/tools/darwin.iso')) shutil.move(convertpath(dest + '/tools/payload/VMware Fusion.app/Contents/Library/isoimages/x86_x64/darwinPre15.iso'), convertpath(dest + '/tools/darwinPre15.iso'))
