This bug is coming up intermittently in various operations - notably changing VM settings - in both Firefox & MS Edge and forces a reload of the client but doesn't save the change I was making, which renders the client useless in some aspects.
Example - tried to edit VM settings (remove a disk) and it failed...

I see a similar report in the KB for vSphere 6.0, allegedly fixed in 6.0u3, but not quite the same.
Also, the client is showing a memory limit of a negative number for a couple of VMs, which it says is invalid. Those VMs were upgraded from v5.5 to v6.5 format. If I remove the value and try to save, generally I get the TypeError above and the change is not saved.
Is there a formal way to submit a bug report? The VMWare support site doesn't seem to want me to raise tickets, presumably because I'm using the free ESXI / vSphere product, but that would be daft if it means I can't pass on useful stuff like bug reports.
