Hi, I know this is old but since there were still some apparent problems, I'll revive. I recently had this issue (albeit on Fusion Pro 8.1.0), and I found this thread and none of the solutions worked. What had caused my issue was I modified my dhcpd.conf file to add an IP reservation to keep my VM at a predictable IP so I could reference it in my hosts file. Unfortunately after I modified my network settings my network settings were greyed out for all adapters on all VMs. To fix, I deleted all of the .bak files in my /Library/Preferences/VMware\ Fusion/vmnetX folders, then I edited /Library/Preferences/VMware\ Fusion/networking and removed the DHCP configuration hash lines. I then rebooted and I had control of my network preferences. I hope this helps someone else who might be having this issue. -GNS
