VMware Fusion 10 works abnormally with Gray #42

Closed yb0lyu closed 5 years ago

yb0lyu commented 5 years ago

It seems that Gray can't work with VMware Fusion 10. After using Gray, Fusion 10 shows all white or black instead of showing Windows 10. What should I do? I have reinstall VMware Fusion and reinstall macOS Mojave, don't work.

Maybe I have to reinstall from macOS Recovery? Oh NO 😭

@yb0lyu Gray does not modify your installation of Mojave, it simply adds a preference to your plist for the application that you are trying to modify. I'm guessing that VMWare is not linked against Mojave yet so the preference has a bad side-effect when changing the appearance.

You could try to run this in your terminal:

killall cfprefsd
/bin/rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.vmware.fusion.plist
/bin/rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.vmware.fusion.plist.lockfile

Be sure to close VMWare before running the commands.

I'm gonna try and install VMWare Fusion later this evening to see if I can't replicate the issue and look at how I can solve it. I'll keep you posted!

@yb0lyu did you manage to restore VMWare into its original state?
