    I have reported your post to the moderators, asking them to move it to the area for Fusion.

    You'll have to contact support - keys only work down to 12.5.

    You can also try to register for a version 12 personal use license from the following link 

    https://customerconnect.vmware.com/en/evalcenter?p=fusion-player-personal

    This was working a few days ago and I was able to obtain a Fusion 12 personal use license from it. No guarantees that they haven't shut it off, but it couldn't hurt to give it a try. Even though it will ask for company information during the registration process, don't panic. Just fill in anything for the company name, and use "Other" or "Unknown" for any of the other prompts for title, department, number of employees, etc.

    FYI the link you will be directed to if you go through VMware's web site to register for a personal use license would get you to https://customerconnect.vmware.com/en/evalcenter?p=fusion-player-personal-13

    which will give you a Fusion 13 personal use license.

    Cool - didn't realize that the old link was still live.

    Just checked it and it still is live.

    I've found that if you aren't signed into your Customer Connect account at the time you try the link, the login to Customer Connect may redirect you to signing up for a Fusion 13 license. If that happens, just try the ...?fusion-player-personal link again.

    Looks like VMware has shut off the "back door" that allowed registration for a Fusion 12 personal use license. The link https://customerconnect.vmware.com/en/evalcenter?p=fusion-player-personal now delivers a Fusion 13 personal use license. 

    This is not surprising since VMware stopped selling Fusion 12 licenses in late 2022 when Fusion 13.0 was released, and Fusion 12 is no longer being supported.
