Fusion 10.0.1 Networking Broken By High Sierra Supplemental Update

All my VMs were running fine on High Sierra under VMWare Fusion 10.0.1. After installing the Mac OS Supplemental Update last week, all the network adapters do not connect, nor can I change any of them in Preferences.

Does a re-install of 10.0.1 help? Also, what build does your macOS show now?

Hi mrwadt ,

Could you try to reboot your macOS and see if this could help?

I'll try that first. I did a reboot but that didn't help.

What finally worked.

  1. Removed all traces and files for VMWare Fusion
  2. Re-installed Mac OS High Sierra from USB drive (over existing file structure)
  3. Re-applied High Sierra Supplemental Update
  4. Re-installed VMWare Fusion 10.01
  5. Copied VMs back in
  6. Reset network adapter in all VMS to bridged networking
  7. Reset network adapter in all VMS to shared networking

I've been noticing that I can't connect to VMs once macOS wakes up from sleep. This started happening after the supplemental update. All network interfaces seem intact without losing any configurations.  I can restore network only by stopping all VMs and then restarting Fusion.  I combed through all logs without much success.  Anyone else is seeing this problem?

Fusion: Pro v10.0.1 (6754183)

macOS: 10.13.1 (17B35a)
