VMware workstation 17 guests capturing keyboard but not super/meta key

Ask Fedora

I am running VMware Workstation Pro on Fedora and everything is working well except for two things.

  1. The copy paste between host and guest (and revers) is not functioning.
  2. The guest VMs will capture the keyboard but not the super/meta key.
    Thank you for any recomendations.

What is the guest in this case?

Did you install support in the guest?

That happens under Wayland. I am not sure if there is a good workaround other than switch to X11.
