Running Windows 10 Pro x64. I was trying to install a 64 bit OS today, when it told me that it won't run because the host is not configured for it. After looking into it for 30 seconds, I realized that VMWare had installed as 32 bit, and I cannot figure out why or how to install it as 64 bit. I have uninstalled and run the installer again, but the installer just runs as 32 bit.
I have a 64 bit OS and processor, and I'm just reinstalling this after a fresh hard drive wipe and reinstall of Windows. This was never a problem before on VMWare 11 or 12 before I wiped my drive.
I don't want to use VirtualBox or anything else, because I like VMWare and it's what I have a license for.
Any ideas?
EDIT: Actually it seems that some other software that (I think) has 64 bit versions are also installing as 32 bit, but not all.
