off topic, but has anyone succesfully registered their Workstation Pro single user license with broadcom? I followed the instructions they send to my email like a month ago, but it still says on the broadcom portal that i am not eligible to download latest version despite me having a valid license.

context: Broadcom has made Pro free for private users but you still need to register with them to download it.

Sign up on their portal with a new burner email account and use that to request the license. Their site is totally broken for existing users and you’ll just end up going in circles with their support.

I didn't have any trouble, although I have owned full versions of Workstation and Fusion in the past. Having said that, their licensing portal is awful and i wouldnt be surprised at all if things were getting lost somewhere in the back end.

Broadcom licensing site is a disaster. The usability is terrible; took me an hour going in circles, but eventually I was able to find where to click. It was something completely unintuitive. But it works. Maybe. Sometimes.
