Ubuntu 22.04 VM freeze on VMware workstation 16

Every programmer needs to have a developer machine to start. one of them is to prepare VM for others. for example, we need to install Odoo ERP in every ubuntu new version for all team members.

I have a scratch installation of Ubuntu 22.04 over VMware workstation 16.

My host is Windows 10.

After a while of using the VM, it started to freeze after a couple of minutes of usage, each time.
In some cases, before the VM froze, I’ve noticed some of my applications get to 100% CPU, which should never happen. When trying to debug it using perf the VM froze once again, so I wasn’t able to see why my apps got to 100%.

Why does my VM freeze?

    I don't know why, but unmarking Accelerate 3D graphics of Virtual Machine Settings -> Display -> 3D graphics solved the problem.
    I have an NVIDIA GeForce MX450 on my host.

    I think it must be something to do with the 3D Graphics, it happened to me.

    But i have and AMD RX 6700XT,

    Also you can try updating the drivers for your graphics card and maybe unmarking the 3D Graphics option
