This is a bit strange. First,

socket_vmnet

is normally found at

/Applications/Rancher <http://Desktop.app/Contents/Resources/resources/darwin/lima/socket_vmnet/bin/socket_vmnet|Desktop.app/Contents/Resources/resources/darwin/lima/socket_vmnet/bin/socket_vmnet>

and shouldn't be in your path -- Rancher Desktop will find it. The only exception (that I can think of -- there are probably others) is that there's an instance of

networks-config.yaml

in your LIMA_HOME directory, which is normally

~/Library/Application Support/rancher-desktop/lima

Secondly, you can restore the path by going into Rancher Desktop preferences, and ensuring

Application | Environment | Configure PATH

is set to

Automatic

. You'll need to refresh any terminal/iTerm/etc. tabs that are open and from which you plan on interacting with any of the Rancher Desktop utilities
