Windows host. Mix of Windows and Linux guests. Moving from 17.5.2 to 17.6. Running into issues, some related to the VMX file and maybe some related to 'Tools'. Been using this product for roughly 15 to 20 years. Every 5 years or so I do a refresh of guests. I wipe out all guest files except for the the disks (VMDK). I then recreate the guests and try for a fresh copy of 'Tools'.
Is 17.6 the right time to do this? Seems close.
Maybe best to wait for one more iteration from Broadcom.
