vmware workstation Player No internet connection - virtual-machine

I'm using vmware workstation 14 Player, there is no option for Virtual Network Editor in VMPlayer. There are several sites which are saying to open the network editor. As I could not find network editor I'm using VM Player 14. Please view the screenshot for better understating.
Here you can see there is no option for network editor and when I click edit virtual machine setting I get the following Box
Here you can see I've selected NAT, but still internet is not working inside VMware. If anyone could help with this.
I was following this video but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2j3nyl4muQ
but here the person is usning VMware and not the vmware workstation player.
Inside preferences I see the following but nothing related to network settings etc
Inside my virtual machine which is a Windows Server 2012 the network adapter shows the following

To do what the video follows up is much better to do it in VirtualBox. Configuring your own NAT is quite easily done, whereas in new VmWare I still have not found a way to do it.
Check this to understand better how to do it.

How to run a discontinued videogame on a Windows XP virtual machine?

My friend and I have downloaded some discountinued videogames from Old Games Download - Retrogaming and Abandonware (which I warmly recommend to any CD-ROM aficionado!). We managed to run two of them after downloading them, mounting their .ISO file and installing them on a Windows 10 machine. The process was fairly smooth.
We are struggling to run the other two. They’re only compatible with Windows XP, so we created a virtual box with XP as the OS, but still no luck. We can’t get the virtual box to connect to Wi-Fi in any way, even after following several tutorials found online. We have tried mounting the games’s ISOs in the following ways:
Using Virtual Clone Drive
Using WinCDEmu
Using Win XP Virtual CD Control Panel
And we think we have managed to actually mount the ISO and install the programme on the virtual machine, but the game won’t start anyway. When we try to run it, this window opens:
Monsters & Co CDROM initial window, with title, play button, exit button
But when we click ‘play’ nothing happens. We have checked the “Insert Guest Addition CD Image” setting that triggers Autoplay and it seems to be up and running. What can we try next?
VirtualBox access internet by connecting to your real machine (the host machine) as if it was a router of some kind. There is no need to make the virtual machine (guest machine) use your wifi adapter directly to get internet connection, just add a virtual network adapter to your guest machine and VirtualBox takes care of everything else (but make sure you have checked the appropriated options during installation process so drivers are installed in your host machine).
Now, the game not launching is hard to say, as we don't have any message or other info about what is causing the falling. Yet, this is a 3D game and VirtualBox is not good enough to hand this kind of computation.

Any help is much appreciated.Thanks
You will need to open up VMWare Workstation, or your VMware app, Go to Settings for your VM, and look for "Network Adapter".
The default is NAT. If that doesn't work, try bridged, or cycle through the options to see if any are supported.
If that doesn't work, you may need to add a new network device. In that case, you will need to do this:
Select Window > Virtual Machine Library.
Select a virtual machine in the Virtual Machine Library window and click Settings.
Click Add Device.
Click Network Adapter.
Click Add.

no internet on windows phone 8 emulator

I have installed windows phone 8 SDK and tried running a simple app which embeds a WebBrowser on a page. When I try to run the app in emulator the emulator does not get internet connection. It displays an error message saying "You don't have permission to modify internal Hyper-V network adapter settings required to run the emulator". Im sure my login has admin permissions. My machine is 64bit, hyper v is enabled and Hyper v manager is running, hardware virtualization is enabled in the BIOS settings, DHCP is enabled and its connected to a wired network. I have checked all the system requirements. What ever I do it keeps on giving the same error message. I setup everything in a different machine and tried running the app in that machine. The same error message is displayed in the that machine also. Can anyone tell me how to get it working.
DHCP is enabled and its connected to a wired network
Can you run ipconfig /all on your host machine and post it here please?
seems you have problem with your DHCP or maybe multiple DHCP and conflict.
You need to add your user account as a member of the "Hyper-V Administrators" group on the machine.
Detailed steps:
Hit Windows key + Q and search for "local users and groups". Change the search scope to "Settings". Click "Edit local users and groups".
Expand the "Groups" section. Right-click on "Hyper-V Administrators" and select "Add to group".
Add your user account.
Some connection tools on the host can have negative effects when used with the emulator; I found having cisco VPN client installed on the host prevented the emulator from finding the internet. Other VPN clients may have similar side-effects. I simply uninstalled cisco (the inbuilt windows VPN is fine for what I need) and it worked perfectly.
I've also seen problems where it won't find the internet after the host has been suspended / resumed. In that scenario, it turned out to be bad network drivers. I installed a dedicated Intel NIC (rather than the on-board NIC on the motherboard) - problem solved.
Basically, Hyper-V is a bit fussy.
try refreshing the hyper-v by unchecking and then checking it again,this worked for me.
Steps:
1.control panel>>programs>>Programs and features>>turn windows features on and off>>hyper-v
2.uncheck it and restart the pc.
3.again go to control panel an check hyper-v and restart the pc again.
the try to run the emulator,should work..
another possible reason is that you did not start vs2013 as admin

WCF on PocketPC, not connecting to host machine

I'm working with a PocketPC vm for development over here.
I can get the virtual device to connect to the internet, but I can't get it to connect to a web service on my local (host) machine.
I've tried the machine name and my IP address, different ports, but no luck.
Anyone else have this issue?
EDIT: I have an actual device at my machine as well. When docked I don't have this problem with the real device, just the emulated one.
I have not had the specific issue. But, the best way I've found to deal with these issues when using WCF is to enable tracing and see what the error messages are.
If you are connected via ActiveSync, you can connect to the name "ppp_peer".
This name will always resolve to the machine connected via active sync.
Figured it out when I read this article:
http://www.betterthaneveryone.com/archive/2008/08/31/getting-network-access-on-the-windows-mobile-emulator.aspx
The device has to be docked. You need to use the Device Emulator Manager to dock the device. Also note: you can only have one device docked at a given time.
Once the device is docked, you should see the Windows Mobile Device Center display. Find the running device (look for the green arrow), right-click and select Cradle. Remember, only one device can be cradled/docked at a time. If you have a real device that is cradled already, you cannot cradle an emulator.
In Windows Mobile Device Center -> Mobile Device Settings -> Connection Settings: Check "Allow connections to one of the following:" and select DMA in the dropdown.
On the emulator: File->Configure->Network. Make sure a valid network device is selected.
From the emulated OS: Start Menu -> Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks. Make both drop-downs My ISP.
That should be it. To test, load Internet Explorer, browse to StackOverflow.com. Next, browse to a web page on your local machine.
