    Ahmed Abdul LatifRequest you to try below steps and this and update if your issue is resolved-

    VM > Settings > Hardware > Processors > Virtualization Engine and uncheck "Virtualize Intel VT-x EPT or AMD-V/RVI"

    By doing uncheck I cannot performed lab as Eve software requires nested virtualization feature. 
    How can i use vmware as a nested virtualization as in past it was working perfectly.

    If you need nested virtualization, you must completely disable WHP and have "VM > Settings > Hardware > Processors > Virtualization Engine and uncheck "Virtualize Intel VT-x EPT or AMD-V/RVI" checked.
