Boot to macOS Recovery in VMware Fusion 11

I found the following three ways to boot to macOS recovery in VMware Fusion, sadly they don’t all work in version 11:

1. Add macosguest.forceRecoveryModeInstall = "TRUE" to you .vmx file – however it doesn’t seem to work with APFS volumes

2. Add bios.bootDelay = "5000" to your .vmx file and press CMD+R during boot – doesn’t seem to work (it opens VMware Boot Manager)

3. Use vfuse from Joe Chilcote with an AutoDMG dmg with the –recovery flag (thanks Arek!)

I found a fourth way that seem to work with VMware Fusion 11:

press “R” at the VMware logo (you may need to click in the VM so it captures your keystrokes)

Select Enter Setup

Select Boot from a File

Select Recovery,[…]

Select <[…]>

Select boot.efi
