When I create a VM (any guest) at first it works fine and all networks are connected properly. After a few OS restarts Workstation starts having the "Could not connect" problems. The log is attached.
What is going on? I'm trying to learn both VMWare and Server 2012/2016 for certification purposes and keep running into this problem.
