AI Recommendation
1 suggestionIDHelper is a helper daemon that is part of VMware Fusion and is not separately updateable. To ensure this component receives native Apple Silicon support (or any pending updates), update VMware Fusion itself through VMware's installer or the built-in update mechanism within Fusion. Open Fusion, go to VMware → Check for Updates, or visit the VMware website to download the latest build of Fusion for your Mac. The helper component will be updated automatically as part of the Fusion installation. If you are still running an Intel-only version of Fusion under Rosetta, updating to a native Apple Silicon build of Fusion will also update this helper to its native counterpart.
