How to harden VMware for malware analysis? [duplicate]

I’m looking for answers specific to VMware Workstation Pro 17.5.2. in 2024, not answers about other VM softwares.

On Windows 11, how can I harden a VM in VMware Workstation Pro 17.5.2 so that malware doesn’t escape and infect the host during malware analysis?

Which boxes in the settings of VMware must I check or uncheck to make the VM as safe as possible?

Which extra software do I need to create a safe unescapable VM environment? Is REMnux for example necessary in this regard? If yes, are there alternatives that work better than REMnux?

Tried to search for answers on Youtube, but found only tutorials for VirtualBox and old versions of VMware.
