I'm running Windows 10 (version 1909) on the host, VMware Workstation 15.5, and Windows Server 2016 (version 1607) as the guest OS with VMware tools version 11.5.1. The problem seems to affect dialog windows that are part of the OS such as the network adapter settings, and other Microsoft applications such as FsLogix. The problem only seems to affect a very small number programs, and in the vast majority of cases the icons, toolbars, checkboxes and dialog windows are sized appropriate. Most of the time this is just an annoyance but with some programs the dialog windows are being badly resized to the point they are unusable (see last screenshot) and its not always practical to RDP onto the guest OS. If I RDP onto the server then the icons, toolbars, checkboxes and dialog windows are sized correctly.
It’s a handy timesaver that helps you track the files and folders you’re working and avoid mistakenly moving the wrong documents around.When running Windows Server 2016 in VMware workstation, I've found that for some programs the icons, toolbars, checkboxes and dialog windows are far smaller than they should be when accessing the guest via the VMware Workstation console. Then, when you’re done with all of them, you can move them all to an archive folder or e-mail them all out at once. For instance, if you move all of the files you need to work with today into a single folder called Today’s Files, you can check off the boxes for each file as you finish working with them. In addition to adding some simplicity to dealing with multiple files or folders, you can also use this feature in an organization strategy. Once you have a bunch of icons checked, you can perform an action on all of them at once, just as you could if you’d selected them all by holding the Ctrl key while clicking them. You can check as many boxes as you like within a folder to select multiple objects.
Click a checkbox to select an object, then hover over and click the checkbox on another icon to add it to your selection. Once you close the Folder Options window, you should find that a little checkbox appears in the upper left corner of any file or folder icon that you hover your mouse over.
