When I try to install macOS in VMware Workstation I get a popup error when I try to login with my Apple ID:
ICLOUD_UNSUPPORTED_DEVICE
That's all it says.
How do I make my VM appear as an iCloud supported device?

Shut down the VM gracefully, then add the following to the end of your virtual machine's .vmx file to make VMware believe it is running on Mac hardware:
board-id = "Mac-551B86E5744E2388"
hw.model.reflectHost = "FALSE"
hw.model = "MacBookPro14,3"
serialNumber.reflectHost = "FALSE"
serialNumber = "C02XXXXXX153"
smbios.reflectHost = "FALSE"
efi.nvram.var.ROM.reflectHost = "FALSE"
efi.nvram.var.MLB.reflectHost = "FALSE"
efi.nvram.var.ROM = "3c0754a2f9be"
Boot the VM.
Open iTunes, click Account menu, then Sign In.
