If you already having VMware workstation player 16 installed, good but if not, then you can check out following tutorials. Just need to follow instructions on the screen.

But steps are more or less common for installing any operating system. I am using Vmware workstation player 16 (free to use non-commercial) in my tutorial and Linux Mint 20.01. Installing any Guest OS is not limited only to Linux mint, it may be used for any Operating system like Windows 10, Other Linux flavour like Ubuntu, Redhat, Suse, AlmaLinux Fedora, Debian etc., and even Solaris, Free BSD, Novell also. It may be for education, research or exploring new features of the Linux Mint operating system.

And need to install Linux mint newer version on it as Guest OS. This post is basically for those people who already had Windows 10 or Linux installed as the host OS. Also, we will learn the installation of VMware Tools on Linux Mint. In this tutorial, I will show you how to install Linux Mint 20.01 on VMware workstation without messing up with your existing operating system, whether Windows or Linux.
