Summary	0006682: VMWare Workstation Pro - Multiple Monitors
Description	After upgrading the the latest version of Kali (2020.3), I am unable to use multiple monitors inside the Guest VM (Kali). When connecting multiple monitors, all of the screens go black. The Guest VM will continue to accept input via mouse or keyboard, but the screen remains black. After disconnecting the other monitors and returning to one, you are left with a prompt on what to do with the additional connected monitor (Mirror, Extend, connect to host, etc.). This tells me that Kali can detect the other monitors being connected to the Guest VM.
Additional Information	I un-installed/re-installed open-vm-tools, and this did not resolve the issue.
