Unable to resize guest window size in Windows 10

[leetriescm]

I am using VMware Workstation 15 Player (free edition), and have Ubuntu 18 64 bit as a guest, on Windows 10 machine.

It runs fine, but for some reason, the guest window size is fixed. When I drag the bottom corner to increase the size, and it just "snaps back" to the default size.

I'm sure I ran it a couple of months ago, and I could resize to whatever size I wanted without issue.

Any idea how to resolve the issue?

Thanks so much,

Lee

I have the same issue but with Windows XP. I've tried adjusting the display options but size doesn't change.

Currently using a magnifying glass to read the guest screen!

I did actually solve it.

Like I said, before I could just drag the whole vmware window and it resized the guest, but that stopped working.

The way I solved it was to go into settings > devices > displays, and pick a new display size. That worked fine for me.
