VMware Fusion 13.5 installed on Mac mini m1 16gb / 512 ssd.

After upgrade Fusion to 13.5 guest Win11 arm screen resolution is limited to 1024 x 768.

VMware tools can't be reinstalled because menu item is disables.

Any suggest?

Thanks in advance.

How did you create the VM originally?

Try installing the tools manually:

From Within the VM,

download the latest VMware Tools 12.3.5 from VMware https://customerconnect.vmware.com/downloads/details?downloadGroup=VMTOOLS1235&productId=1259&rPId=112353. Make sure you choose the "VMware Tools for Windows Arm, in-guest installer"
Unzip the file
execute the installer.
