How to find the IP Address of a vm running on VMware (or other methods of using VM)

First Go in the Virtual Machine Settings.

Then in the Network Section, click the Advanced button and read the MAC address

Then in the console execute: arp -a

C:\>arp -a
Interface: 10.98.79.23 --- 0xb
  Internet Address      Physical Address      Type
  10.98.79.10           b8-ac-6f-cb-a1-80     dynamic
  10.98.79.12           78-2b-cb-aa-51-bf     dynamic

Interface: 192.168.20.1 --- 0x1c
  Internet Address      Physical Address      Type
  192.168.20.128        00-0c-29-56-bd-36     dynamic
  192.168.20.255        ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff     static

Found the MAC address and the IP will be on the side.

In this case the IP is: 192.168.20.128

Please check, if not those input devices are connected to the guest OS as USB devices? Once disconnecting them, they should become accessible to the host OS - and therefore operational.

on Linux the command is:

ip addr

or the rather obsolete:

ifconfig

the equivalent command on Windows is:

ipconfig /all

while the output looks about like that:

eno16777984: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
    inet 192.168.2.101 netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 192.168.2.255
    ...

There is a built-in VNC service in Workstation. I've not used it, but the config (below) would seem to suggest that you could enable it, and use your host's IP with a particular port with any of a number of VNC clients to gain control of your virtual machine.
