MacBook Pro M1 Pro running Ventura 13.13.1 VMWare Fusion 13.0.2 (21581413) Windows 11 64-bit ARM Good morning.   I have two separate issues after installing VMWare Fusion.   The first being when I'm not connected to my two external monitors my VM does not want to auto resize correctly.   The option is grayed out.  I've installed and reinstalled VMWare Tools.  My second issue is cut, copy and paste is not working between my Mac and my Windows VM. Both of these features worked on my previous Mac but that was also an Intel based MacBook Pro that was running Windows 11 64 bit.  

I recently upgraded to a MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2020, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports) with macOS Catalina 10.15.8 that is running VMware Fusion Pro 11.5.5 and a Windows 10 Enterprise VM.  I noticed that if I leave my VM running and close my lid when I return to work the following morning my laptop is a little warm and my battery life is somewhere around 20-25% remaning. My prior laptop is a MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2016, Two Thunderbolt 3 ports) with macOS Catalina 10.15.5 that is running the same version of VMware Fusion Pro 11.5.5 and I can keep my VM running and close the lid but it doesn't drain my battery.  The following day I come into the office and the battery might have dropped 3-5 percent. I have looked at all of my settings and they both appear to be the same.  Has anyone else noticed this behavior?  Is there some kind of fix or work around?  Two others in my office upgraded to the same MacBook and they are seeing the same behavior so I know it is not just me.
