Static IPs on VM, NAT - no connection to host for copying files

Am I crazy or someone is also going through this


Problem:

I set my VM to be NAT Network Adapter
I am using static IPs because I set up a small network between VMs
Dooof: I cant connect to my  host- I need to copy over files

Solution:

Temporarily change the Lan Properties to get IP Automatically - this will break the ntwork with the VMs - small network - but fix connection to the host network

Copy the files using a network path

after copying,

Take back Static Network

If there is a better way of doing this, please share
