I upgraded my VMware Ubuntu 18.04 to 18.10. After the upgrade it was working fine until I shutdown and restarted the VM, and now it won't display in full screen.
I followed by installing a fresh copy of 18.10 and at first it was working fine right after install and after reboot the same thing happened.
Any suggestions?

I ran into the same issue on a fresh install of 18.10 on VMWare 15.01. If I manually restarted open-vm-tools after I logged in, everything worked. I tried to reinstall VMWare tools, it didn't help. This did fix it:
Edit this file using your preferred editing tool
Add these lines to the end of the "Unit" section
Save the file and the next time you restart you should be good to go.
You can apply the changes immediately without restarting by running
