Hi, Here’s what happened to me and my keyboard in Windows running in VMWare Fusion following upgrading to Mojave. When I started Windows 10 in VMWare fusion, I realised with alarm that I could no longer use my keyboard. It was unresponsive. I plugged in an external keyboard and again, the keyboard didn’t seem to work. Now the reason for it was that in Mojave when you launch an application like VMware fusion, Mojave needs you to approve this app, i.e. give it permission to control your mac. You have to go to system preferences, security and privacy tab. There you will find a table listing applications allowed to control your computer. You must check the checkbox to enable fusion. This will make it possible for you to use your keyboard again. Remember, you may have to enable making changes in this area by typing in your user password. There’s a button at the right end of the dialogue box which you need to press first and type in your user password.
Hope this will help. I confess I freaked out when I couldn’t use my keyboard. It was lucky that I had invoked windows chooser menu in desperation which revealed an alert window asking me whether I want to grant VMWare fusion control.
