   VMware Fusion 8.5

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   VMware has updated the [1]standard and [2]Pro editions of its popular
   virtualization package to version 8.5. The update resolves an issue
   that prevented a Windows virtual machine from opening an attachment in
   the mail application on the Mac, fixes a crash with opening an imported
   Parallels 11 virtual machine, and sorts out a problem with successfully
   dragging and dropping files between a host and a Mac OS virtual
   machine. The release notes also call out several known issues when
   running VMware Fusion on macOS 10.12 Sierra, including crashes that
   occur when grabbing keyboard or mouse input from the host and a problem
   with using Full Screen mode when operating more than one monitor.
   ($79.99/$199.99 new, free update, 369 MB, [3]release notes, 10.9+)
