VMWare Workstation Pro Copy paste is not working from Host to guest

I am using VMware® Workstation 12 Pro. When i try to copy and paste from Host to Guest, the function is not working.

Host OS : Windows 10 Enterprise. Guest OS : Windows 7 Ultimate. Network : Bridged (Directly Connect to Physical Network)

But, reverse is working, it means if copy and paste some thing from Guest to Host is working.

I have removed and re-installed the VMWare Tools, which suggested on some of the forums, but it didn't help.

Please help me to fix this issue.

The following solution works for me under Windows 10 so I hope it works for you as well under Windows 7. Follow the below steps to copy and paste your source code from a programming editor like Visual Studio from one VMWare Workstation to another every time. This process also allows me to copy from my host PC of Windows 10 to a VMWare Workstation running Windows 10 as well.

Prior to this copy and paste would not work without manual administrator setup every time I needed to launch VMWare Workstation for Windows 10. Note: after completing the steps if the VMWare Workstation application is running you will need to shut it down (not just the virtual machine) then re-open the application followed by re-opening your virtual machine(s) for the settings to take effect:
