How can I import appliance into VMWare Workstation, without it starting?

I am importing VCSA, vRO, etc into VMWare Workstation 14 Pro. The issue I'm hitting is that it seems to default to bridge mode, and it auto-starts the VM immediatelly upon import.

I have setup a custom host-only network on VMNet5, and removed all others, but somehow it still starts up in bridged mode.

I could not seem to find a configuration under Workstation preferences, and Google has failed to point me to a config file or CLI command, that would instruct Workstation to simply import appliance and stop there.

Any tips, much appreciated! Smiley Happy
