A not so documented feature is the support of VMXNET3 in VMWare Fusion. It cannot be configured through the UI but by manually editing the VM configuration file (VMX-file), you can leverage it (assuming you have installed VMWare Tools and/or are running a supported guest OS).

Open the file with your favourite text editor, but avoid using Apple's TextEdit as it has a tendency to replace regular quotes with opening/closing quotes, which will break your VMX-file. You can use Terminal and open the file using Nano if you want to be sure.

Network adapters are specified with ethernet*. as the starting line, where * = the number of the network adapter (0 is the first, 1 is the second, and so on).   ...

Not straightforward to find on the website (but with a little bit of Googling, here it is): an overview of the system requirements for VMware Fusion. All versions are listed:

By default, VMware Tools are automatically updated when power-cycling a VM each time a new version is available. This may not be desirable, and currently, there is no way to change this behaviour anywhere in the settings. This setting can however by changed manually on a VM-basis, by manually editing the VM's configuration file (.vmx).

Although there's mention of a global setting in Fusion's configuration files, many users report this as not working, so I only mention the per-VM setting here.

First, make sure your VM is not running. Preferably, close VMware Fusion entirely (⌘ + Q).

Using Finder or Terminal, navigate to the VM folder. When using Finder, you'll need to right-click you  ...

Since VMware Fusion 13.6, there is an issue where each time you start an existing powered-off or suspended virtual machine, you are prompted whether the virtual machine was copied or moved, even though it isn't.

This is due to an issue with the virtual machine library files (files that tell which virtual machines are in the library). Each virtual machine has a unique identifier (called UUID). This UUID is stored in the virtual machine library and must be unique. VMware Fusion allows the use of both personal and shared virtual machines (shared with other users) and to this end, two inventory files are kept:

A personal file, located in ~/Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmInventory
