I am learning Vagrant from scratch from a Udemy tutorial. I want to use my centos machine to install everything and run all from there, but they use VirtualBox and in my Centos machine (a dell computer), I was unable to make VB work, it seems it is a problem with the BIOS and secure boot. I just wasn't able to deactivate it. So I was trying to use VMWare Workstation 14 player as a provider for Vagrant. But when I am trying to check the setup it says that:
"A valid license is required to run the vagrant vmware provider. Please visit URL to purchase a license. Once you purchase a license, you can install it..."
I am using Workstation player, because it says it is free, And actually VMWare has a lot of different programs that I am not sure what do I need. Which brings me to the question:
Is it possible to use Vagrant with VMWare as a provider without paying? If so, how can I do that?
If there are no other way, I might use my mac to continue with this.

Why would the BIOS effect the booting of a virtual Box machine within the operating system?

This seems to be a legal (licencing) question, so off topic. However VM is propitiatory, you are probably in licence infringement, if you do. I am also wondering what problem will stop Vbox from working, but allow VMWare.

@RamanSailopal and ctrl-alt-delor the issue is with vboxdrv, it said that it was a kernel issue, it seems that the kernel failed to load some modules at boot, ive been doing some research and it is because since windows 8-10 computers comes with secure boot and this prevents vboxdrv from work. I tried to dissable it and use the legacy version of the bios, but as soon as I restart the system goes into recovery mode and thats it. It doesnt load at all

No. There is no way to legally or ethically use the Vagrant VMware provider without a paid license.
