Hi Simon
thanks for the help.
The solution kept failing because auto bridging kept turning back on, so I did the following.
Modified the settings in the virtual network editor.
Then I used the following in cmd
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Workstation
start /wait vnetlib.exe -- export c:\settings.txt
This exports the settings from the virtual network editor
On the local machine I then run
c:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Workstation
vnetlib -- uninstall bridge == vnetlib -- bridge uninstall
start /wait vnetlib.exe -- import c:\settings.txt
The vnetlib -- uninstall bridge == vnetlib -- bridge uninstall line is to permanently remove the bridge protocol to reinstall just replace uninstall with install.
I then just saved it as a cmd.
Thanks for the help
Nic
