Fusion 8.5.3, Sierra 10.12.3, and Windows 10 Home 1607 mouse problems

Hi,

I have Fusion 8.5.3, Sierra 10.12.3, and Windows 10 Home 1607 installed on my MackBook Pro (15 inch 2016).  I am having a couple of problems with the mouse.

1. When the Windows guest grabs the mouse the only way to move out of the window is to press <control>-<command>.  Is it possible to get Fusion to release the mouse when the pointer hits the edge of the Windows guest window?  I also have to click on the fusion Window to reactivate the mouse in the Windows guest window.  I have a PC with VM Ware Workstation installed and the mouse moves freely between windows.

2. I cannot get drag and drop between the Sierra and Windows desktop to work. 

Hopefully there is an easy fix for these mouse related problems.

Mike

Make sure VMWare tools have been installed in the guest - sometimes the automatic install doesn't work.
