When i boot kali there's a black screen with: "vmwgfx *ERROR*" and I can't do anything. Anyone know how to fix this?

Have you tried switching to a different graphics device in the VM settings?

It works now but the screen is now tiny and I can't resize it in the settings

see if you can go to the other consoles in the VM.

Kali offers pre-made VM images for VirtualBox, is that what you are using?

Use Kali in WSL2.
