I uninstalled and installed 16.0, which still didn't work. Then upgraded to 16.1.1 and (thankfully) my VMs load again.
Day lost with it all. I will not be performing upgrades so quickly in future!

Hi,
You should be able to downgrade.
A few notes:
- Do not suspend any of your VM's, but use shut down.
- If you made new snapshots, commit them before downgrading.
- If you used the new experimental vtpm feature then remove that before downgrading (not easy, see other threads on this, for example https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Workstation-Pro/How-to-remove-managedvm-autoAddVTPM-quot-software-quot-after/td-p/2872592/jump-to/first-unread-message)
- Check the virtual hardware of your VM's, they should be set to Workstation 16 compatibility at most and not at level "Beta". If they are set at Beta then change them back to 16 before uninstalling.
Hope this helps,

16.2 was truly horrible. My W10Guest VM was constantly freezing for 30secods or more. It was impossible to use like that
Thankfully 16.1.2 is back to operating properly.
