I put macOS on Sanoma in VMware 16 Pro, but only 1 CPU works. A custom Intel i9-13900K shows this error when trying to use more than 1 processor. I've tried different workarounds and still can't fix it. Could you help?

That message basically says you messed up. You only have one CPU core, so adding more won't help; you should probably stick with the default setup or boost your cores instead of changing processors.

And I would want if this virtual machine wasn't just so slow and snail-like. I found out that turning off Core Isolation will speed things up using 1 cpu but leaves your computer vulnerable to attacks so i leave it enabled. Other than that idea speeding this virtual machine up is hard and makes it run slowly.
