   Virtualbox with Windows 10 over Linux Mint was so slow as to be useless   
   but I need it.   
      
   I decided to export the Windows 10 virtual machine to an ova file and   
   import into VMware player 17.0.2.   
      
   There were several slips but eventually it was imported.   
   BUT it would start and then exit after the Windows 10 virtual machine   
   was started.   
      
   Starting it from a terminal as /usr/bin/vmplayer caused it to start   
   then stop after producing the following warnings: (I have removed the   
   repetitive prefixes).

   missing action removable-device-0-nic-host-only   
   removable-device-0-edit: missing action removable-device-0-edit   
      
   I have ensured all three virtual network connections (Bridged, Host   
   only and NAT) were enabled but that made no difference other than to   
   add additional ertor messages gfor device-1 and device-2.   
      
   Frustrating.
