Hello,
I have upgraded to vmware fusion 5.0.2 on my mac (osx 10.8.2) and installed Windows 8, I cannot access my shared folders. Now I have read many blogs etc about this issue and removed adapters, re-added them, restarted. Turned of mirroring and restarted, changed the variables in regedit and I still get the problem, even when I try to install VMWare tools. Which is strange as the share is not there, but the installation of vmware tools says it cannot see \documents etc.
Thanks
Richard
