I've been experiencing intermittent copy/paste issues in Workstation 11.1.2.
In general, paste stops working, or starts working again, for no apparent reason. Unfortunately I haven't been able to isolate steps to reproduce.
Paste functionality can be occasionally restored by using the guest's Edit | Paste option.
VMware tools are loaded. Cut/paste is enabled. Logins have admin rights but are running as normal users (split tokens).
Host: Win7U SP1
Guest: Win7U SP1, Win Server 2012 R2.
WKS: 11.1.2
Only one vm or many ?
Many — simultaneously running Win 7U SP1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 guests.
