Missing Parameter "isolation.tools.dnd.disable"

Hi, Just running through the 6.5 Security hardening guide and ive run into some issues with "VM.disable-console-drag-n-drop", it would appear that the parameter isolation.tools.dnd.disable is missing from my VMs...  Am i safe to just apply it, using command

Get-VM | New-AdvancedSetting -Name "isolation.tools.dnd.disable" -value $true

thanks

based on many comments it is not working or is deprecated in 6.5 => https://www.altaro.com/vmware/clipboard-vsphere/

if you check doc for vSphere 6.x you will not find "isolation.tools.dnd.disable" anymore => Security Considerations for Configuring VMware Tools
