Fix VMware Bridged Network Not Working on Virtual Machine

The issue arises because VMware automatically selects a network adapter on the host for bridging. If multiple network adapters exist in your OS, especially virtual adapters created by other software like VirtualBox that are not connected to the real network, VMware might get confused and select one of these virtual adapters for bridging, resulting in no network connection. To solve this problem, you need to manually specify the network adapter to bridge to.

Steps：

1. Open the Start menu and search for Virtual Network Editor.
2. Select Run as administrator.
3. In the dropdown menu behind Bridged to, choose the physical network adapter you are currently using.
4. Click OK to save and exit.

Now your virtual machine’s network should work properly.
