Describe the bug
I was able to capture all user interaction inside a VM previously. I had to redo my PC, and it doesn't work anymore. I want to make instructionals but can't because it doesn't capture on every mouse click. Microsoft problem recorder has no problem, but I don't understand what changed in screentogif for this problem to happen.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open VMware pro
  2. Click anywhere

Expected behavior
I would love for it to capture the events as it did previously

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem. (Please notice how clicks inside the VM don't do anything, but if I click on the taskbar it does)

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: [e.g. Windows 10]
  • Version 22H2

Additional context
It worked only days ago, not sure what happened :(
