Mac OS X Sierra guest no shares

[TECH198]

Despite reinstalling VMWare Tools i get a blank folder when trying to share: Is there a fix, or must i set up file sharing on the host as a workaround?

Yep, exact same problem here with a catalina host and Fusion 11.5

No shares in the guest.

Kind of a strange way...

File sharing set up in system preferences  on both host and guest pointing to each others folder to share..

Funky, but it works..

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing as a workaround.
