If you have an earlier version of Fusion, you can upgrade to the current version by manually downloading the Fusion disk image from the VMware Web site.
Upgrade Vmware Fusion From Dmg Software
Hey Guys, quick question regarding VMware 12 and Mojave. I have Catalina as my main install, so Fusion 12 Pro is good there. I also have a back up portable install of Mojave I keep around for 32-bit support. I had a copy of Fusion 11.5.1 on that install, and manually downloaded 11.5.6 today so it would be up to date for Mojave. Download VMware Fusion 11 and let your Mac run Windows, Linux or Mac OS X Server. Run the most demanding Mac and Windows applications side-by-side at maximum speeds without rebooting.
If you are upgrading Fusion, VMware recommends that you first remove the version of Fusion installed on your Mac. The process of installing, upgrading, and uninstalling Fusion does not modify existing virtual machines.
Verify that all of your virtual machines are shut down and that Fusion is not running.
