VMware Fusion 12.1 vmnet8 NAT port persists

While running on osx Catalina 10.15.7 using Vagrant, I accidentally brought up 2 boxes/VMs using NAT networking with port 2222.

I ended up destroying/deleting both VMs, but /Library/Preferences/VMware Fusion/vmnet8/nat.conf still has the port.

I've tried deleting /Library/Preferences/VMware Fusion/vmnet8/nat.conf.bak and removing the offending line

2222 = 172.16.37.134:22

from /Library/Preferences/VMware Fusion/vmnet8/nat.conf.

After OSX boot the line is back.

I've seen old posts that suggest running boot.sh, but the shell script doesn't seem to be on my machine.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
