I don't think it does. See the discussion in https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Fusion-Discussions/Windows-11-ARM-missing-bluetooth-device/...

VMware Tools typically do not provide Bluetooth support for virtual machines. You may need to explore alternative solutions for Bluetooth functionality within your VM.

thank you. what alternative would you suggest (besides going to parralels desktop) in order to have bluetooth working ? an adapter ?

and will vmwaretools ever get BT support or is it simply not feasible ?

The other article I linked to suggests that a USB Bluetooth adapter might be an option.

VMware hasn’t said anything about whether they will enhance support for BT.
