Sidenote: It seems that going 'Edit > Paste' in the top bar actually works, however CTRL + V does not.
Both Host and Guest are fully up to date on their respective OS's:
Host: 10.0.22631 Windows 11 Pro
Guest: 10.0.19045 Windows 10 Pro
- VMWare tools is installed on the guest (reinstalled a couple times on suggestion from other users), no change
- Tried disabling then disabling the Guest isolation, with a reboot between, no change
- Someone recommended enabling shared folders (not something I want to do at all, but it didn't work anyway), no change
- Tried using a different iso for Windows 10, no change
- Tried suspending the VM then restarting VMWare on the host, no change
- Repair install of VMWare tools, no change
Added this to the vmx file from someone elses suggestion with no change:
isolation.tools.copy.disable = "FALSE"
isolation.tools.dnd.disable = "FALSE"
isolation.tools.paste.disable = "FALSE"
isolation.tools.hgfs.disable = "FALSE"
This is incredibly frustrating and I don't know what else to try
