    Posted Oct 13, 2024 06:14 AM

    A big thank you to the VMWare and Broadcom team for coming out with an update.   I appreciate responsiveness.

    Some stuff has been fixed.   I am looking for the release notes for 17.6.1 that address new changes and fixes.    Can

    someone please point me to the release notes for 17.6.1?

    Thank you.

    Does anyone know how to actually get this upgrade? I've been going around in circles.

    Maybe I need to build a profile, but I don't have a site ID.

    I'm an independent contractor and have used Workstation Pro for over 15 years and upgrades were always automatic if I paid for major version upgrades.

    The deepest link to VMware Workstation downloads that consistently works for me is:

    https://support.broadcom.com/group/ecx/productdownloads?subfamily=VMware%20Workstation%20Pro

    The Broadcom website is so poorly designed that they have a wall-of-text KB article describing the download procedure.
