Hi jaromeTN
Yes, it was properly shut down. I tried removing and adding network adaptors. The problem is not the Network Adaptor, it is the Ethernet adaptor. There are none!
After you removing and re-adding the network adapters, are there items called ethernetX.virtualDev = "e1000e" in your vmx file? If you type ipconfig/all via command line, what's the result of 'Ethernet adapter EtherenetX'-> 'Description'?
