Hi all,
We have just build 3 new Windows Server 2016 on our VMware environment. they are all made from the same sysprepped image.
I am trying to work out why we see "Network 2, Network 3" under Network Connections > Ethernet0 (See picture)
I think they are called network connection profiles but not sure why it shows up as 2??
My colleague tells me he may have put 2 out of the 3 VMs in the wrong network on the VMware side and afterwards changed them.
All 3 VMs are Windows Server 2016
All 4 VMs have the same static route added in
All 4 VMs have the same version of VMware Tools 10.2.5.8068406 installed

I have tried from an elevated command prompt to run set dev_mgt_show_nonpresent_devices=1 and then devmgmt.msc and go to view show hidden devices. It only shows one vmxnet3 Ethernet Adapter
Yesterday we uninstalled that adapter and scanned for hardware changes and while the multiple network profiles got fixed it only lasted a minute or so and then the second one popped back.
Does anyone have any ideas on what is going on?
