Options for Shared VMs missing in Workstation Pro 16

In Workstation Pro 15 / 15.5 had options for Shared VMs and I'm simply not seeing that in Workstation Pro 16. For example, When I choose Edit > Preferences... in the VMware UI there is no Shared VMs option displayed.

How can I go about managing and creating in Shared VMs in Workstation Pro 16?

NOTE: I am running Workstation on Windows 10, 20H2.

I guess that VMware was too lazy to even bother removing references to the Shared VMs tab from the Workstation 16 User Guide. Glad I'm only evaluating a trial and did not pay for an upgrade to version 16!
