vmware workstation tools mountain lion mac OS x

I installed Mountain Lion and then I tried to run and then got this error:

The virtual machine cannot enter Unity mode because:
- The guest operating system does not have VMware Tools installed.
- The guest operating system's resolution cannot be changed.

Then I try to update tools:

Could not find component on update server.
Contact VMware Support or your system administrator.

It's not possible to install it on Mac OS X. You can install Windows on the Mac though, but that kind of defeats the purpose. VMware Fusion has similar (or the same) guest OS support, including the Linuxes.

Can VMware player run OSX?

You can create a macOS Monterey virtual machine using VMware that works exactly the same as VirtualBox. And, just as with VirtualBox, VMware also requires patching before the macOS Monterey virtual machine will work. This part of the tutorial works for Intel and AMD systems.
