Copy/Paste with Windows VM does not work

[kwaleeb]

When using Fusion 13.0.2 on my M1 macOS 13.3.1 to connect to a Win 10 Pro x64 VM on an ESXi 6.7U3 server with the full VMware tools installed, I can't copy/paste between the guest VM and my host using Fusion. It also doesn't work in the VMRC macOS client available on the App Store. I know copy/paste works in this VM since it works with Workstation/VMRC on Windows.

I understand this capability is non-functional for local W11 ARM guest VMs since the tools/drivers aren't fully built out yet, but copy/paste works with the Horizon M1 macOS client and Windows guests, so why doesn't it work in Fusion or macOS VMRC?

Figured it out, just needed to add a few lines to the advanced config. For anyone with the same issue, refer to this article: Enable content Copy/Paste between VMRC client and Windows/Linux Virtual Machine (57122) (vmware.com)
