NAT Configured Network Devices Disappear after reboot.

I am using Workstation 12.5.6 on Linux Mint 18.1, but this happens in Windows 10 as well.

I configure several devices in the Virtual Network Editor. They show up ad devices on the host machine. I configure some as NAT and some as Host-only.

No matter what vmnet I assign the device that is set up as NAT, as soon as I reboot, that device disappears and only reappears if I go back into Virtual Network Editor and click save.

Is this proper behavior, and if not (I can't see how it could be) how do I keep the network configurations static between boots?

Hello,

This is not expected behavior. Has Workstation been upgraded a lot? Wondering if something along the way was not upgraded correctly causing this.
