Can´t run VMs on VMware Fusion - MacOS High Sierra - Cannot find a valid peer process to connect to macOS High Sierra 10.13.6

VMware Fusion 10.1.3

Error message:
"Cannot find a valid peer process to connect to."

Already clicked Allow on Privacy and Security for VMware Inc. but the button doesn´t work.

How else might I troubleshoot this?
I found the allow button wouldn't work as I was running magicprefs mouse software. I disabled this and the button then worked. However that didn't fix the problem for very long and the VM continues to crash.
