Have not updated the screenshots for latest 1.1.0 unlocker or latest Unlocker for VMware workstation 9, 8 and 7 Recent VMware workstation did not work and I could not start any virtual Later, Iįound a similar patch for 9 and 8 series. Patched files, so no longer I able to run Lion OS X on VMware. I have demonstrated and tested on Workstation 7 series in previous post, but once I upgraded to VMware workstation 9 Sysprobs already published a working method to install and run Lion OS X on VMware workstation based on this unlocker.
