I have a licensed version of VMware Workstation Pro 17 and have been trying to configure my virtual machines with certain access/lockdown controls to the end-user. I am wanting to ensure when the end-user launches them they do not have access to functionalities such as the toolbar overlay/opening the VMware UI, etc.

I would like to provide the end-user access to each virtual machine via **** desktop shortcuts on the host account that automates the whole process for them.

I have investigated various ideas such as utilising Exclusive Mode or potentially writing up a PowerShell script but i've been wondering if there's an easier way to achieve this - or if perhaps Workstation Pro 17 may not have this functionality I am after OOTB?
