That is my problem I did not touch a thing, after I wanted to create my fifth virtual machine I got this error and tried to fix this issue with the help of the internet, you have any idea of what I can do ?
If you are willing to connect remotely I can share my id and password with you if not its not a problem. A person with your skills I think will not probably only 1-2 minutes to solve the problem.
Remove the virtual machine portgroup and remove the vSwitch, there are not required. e.g. reset to defaults.

I'm afraid all communications must be conducted through the forum, and not via remote access.

If you want someone to fix it, then I would recommend creating a Gig or Project here at EE.
How can I turn the settings to default again ?

As a side note.  I would advise trying a different browser to add a new VM.  I just experienced the same issue and switching from FireFox to Chrome resolved the issue.  We are also running VMware ESXi 6.5
Due to network configuration I would have needed to recreate the virtual switches to allow proper connectivity so deleting and starting over wasn't the most desirable option.
