Previously, I ran version 7.1.2 on my MacBook Air. Step 2: Installing macOS into VMware Fusion. I found the upgrade to be a straightforward process and was again pleasantly surprised that no significant changes were required to my pre-existing Windows 8.1 Professional virtual machine, which I intend to upgrade to Windows 10. To upgrade VMware Fusion 6 or 7 to version 8, open Fusion on your Mac. The VMware Fusion 8 Software Update window should appear. If it doesn’t, you can also trigger the window by prompting Fusion to check for updates. If the update option just doesn’t work for you, visit the VMware Fusion 8 webpage and click the Upgrade button.

If you’re updating using Fusion’s software update window, click the Learn More button. Select the Upgrade from Fusion 6.x, 7.x, 8.x option to change the pricing to $49.99. VMware states a 64-bit capable Intel Mac with a Core 2 Duo, Xeon, i3, i5 or i7 chip is required running Mac OS X 10.9 or later.Note the system requirements for Fusion 8 in order to ensure your Mac is up to the challenge: VMware calls for 2 GB RAM and recommends 4 GB.I recommend you have a Mac with at least 8 GB, of which you dedicate at least 4 GB to the virtual machine when it’s running. Fusion’s system requirements list 750 MB free disk space and at least 5 GB be present for each virtual machine.I recommend reserving significantly more disk space for the virtual machine.
