VMWare Workstation Guest Freezes

I have been using my current images for years without issues.  In the last week or so, my VMWare guest images freeze up for 20-30 seconds.  It seems to happen when a Windows "warning" dialog pops up (e.g., I try to save a file with an existing file name, "Filename already exists.  Overwrite?").  The system will become unresponsive for 20-30 seconds and then it will return to normal operation.

This seems to have started after the recent update to 16.2.1.  I tried uninstalling it and going back to 16.2 but the issue still happens.
