You can find this in the settings for vmware in the toolbar of the
active virtual machine, in the menu under Virtual Machine or just hit
Command-E. Sharing should be the second button in settings. Make sure
Enable Shared Folders is checked then VO-right twice to the Add button.
From there you pick what folder on your Mac you want to appear as a
folder on your virtual windows machine. Once added, log into your
virtual windows machine and you should find a shortcut on your desktop
called VMWare Shared Folders. Inside there you should find a sub-folder
named the same as the Mac directory you added.
Hope this helps.

Or just setup a shared folder between yoru fusion vm and the mac host.
There should be an option in the Fusion system to setup a shared drive
I've just done this with virtual box on a windows 7 vm and sierra host
I used the shared folder on the mac os as the host end and then specified a new
folder name that vb created on the windows 7 desktop
I then put things in to either and they show up on the other.
Very simple
Sorry I can't tell you exatly where this is in fusion but it is there.
