Hello.
I have Gentoo and i just updated VMWare using the built in method of vmware workstation 16 player.

Network stopped working.

I tried following the steps here:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/VMware#systemd_services

i added the systemd files and started them using
# systemctl start vmware
# systemctl start vmware-usbarbitrator
# systemctl start vmware-networks-server

But when i boot Windows 10 on VMWare, i get no network and on the device manager i cannot see any network devices.
I have enabled NAT networking in the VMWare settings.
