title: VMware Workstation and Device/Credential Guard are not compatible
body: <p>I have been running VMware for the last year no problems, today I opened it up to start one of my VM and get an error message, see screen shot.</p>

  <p>I did follow the link and went through the steps, on step 4 I need to mount a volume using "mountvol". 
  when I try to mount a volume using <code>mountvol X: \\?\Volume{5593b5bd-0000-0000-0000-c0f373000000}\</code> it keeps saying <code>The directory is not empty.</code> I even created a partition with 2GB and still the same message.</p>
  
  <p><strong>My Questions:</strong></p>
  
  <p>How can I mount the volume that is not empty even though it is? </p>
  
  <p>Why did this Device/Credential Guard auto enable itself and how can I get rid of it or disable it.</p>
