Can not unintall/install VMware Player

• Cannot install VMWare Player, workstation or anything like that

  All appear to be the same way with a message like:

  

  However I've checked that the file exists and that I can access. What is the problem?

  I had VMWare Player 6.0.5 and could not install/update VMWare tools. So, I suspended my operating system prompted and rebooted VMPlayer. He told me that there is a new VMWare Workstation something 10.x and I wanted to upgrade to it. Okay, of course. Downloaded the update and tried to install. Said to uninstall VMWare Player 6.0.5. Being suspicious, I went and downloaded VMWPlayer 6.0.5 where he screwed up the installation of Workstation 10.0. Of course, he did. So I tried to install Player 6.0.5 so I could return to my suspended VM. In my opinion, what he said that I could not install because I haven't restarted. So I rebooted. Now, I can't install Player 6.0.5 or Workstation 10.0.0 or whatever it is. They all fail on the same way saying the cannot find a .msi file I can find and access.

  Help!

  BTW, you guys have far too much product and names making it confusing. What should I use? Player? Workstation? Spear? vCenter, Fusion. The list goes on and. Do not try to give me the list of "well it's for this reason and this other thing". The point is there are too many products and it is too complicated. If you want to tell me what the structure of the product is just limit it to the product I should use. I have a Windows 7 box and you want to run Ubuntu in a VM desktop - that's all...

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Please note that this is a forum for peer support and therefore, it is mainly users of VMware help other VMware users who make up the bulk of this forum. It is VMware employees responding in time in time, but in your case here (Note: VMware employees are recognizable because they have a small 'vm' next to their name logo)

  With regard to your current number. If you install VMware Workstation, then you have also installed VMware Player next.

  Even after the expiry of VMware Workstation, you can continue to use the free VMware Player.

  Hope this helps,

  A. what browser do you use to download flash player?

  Have b. you tried with another browser?

  Have c. you downloaded this earlier?

  Please, try the following steps.

  Step 1: uninstall previous versions of Flash Player

  Before you install Flash Player for any Windows browser, uninstall all previous versions, and then restart your computer. Try to download flash player, if it does not work then uninstall Download Manager and check.

  Step 2: Verify Internet Explorer security and ActiveX settings

  Make sure that the Internet Explorer security is set at a level that allows viewing ActiveX controls. The medium: default level allows you to view the Flash content. For any custom level, follow the instructions below. (Contact your system administrator for more information.)

  To change your security level:

  1. open Internet Explorer.
  2. choose Tools > Internet Options.
  3. Select the Security tab.
  4. Select the custom level.
  5. Locate the section "ActiveX controls and plug-ins.

• Hi I can not download the flash player because I forgot my password.

  Hi I can not download the flash player because I forgot my password.

  It is the operating system, no Flash Player, which is asking to specify the password.  Please see what userid & password I need to install Flash Player?  for assistance.

• Cannot install VMware Player 6.0.2 when username contains apostrophe

  I tried to install VMware Player 6.0.2 in a Windows 8.1 Professional 64-bit o/s.

  I kept getting "Error in Script" (see image below).

  After some research, I found the cause of the problem.  This is because the user name contains an apostrophe.  In some countries, it is normal to have an apostrophe in the name, such as Joan of arc.  For the problem of confidentiality, I don't mention the true name in my case, so let's say it's Joan of arc.  In this problem, the path to "index.htm" is

  C:\users\Jeanne d'Arc\AppData\Local\Temp\vmware_xxxxxxx\index.htm

  Then I created another user name "Joan of Arc".  I used this new account to run Setup again and I didn't have the 'Script error '.  It is so clear to me that the apostrophe in user name (and therefore in the path of the file) has been the cause of the problem.

  

  I suspect that this problem can also occur for the installation of VMware Workstation.

  As a result of my post:

  This problem happens

  • VMware Player 6 and 7
  • VMware Workstation 10 and 11

  But it is FIXED in

  • VMware (Workstation) 12 player
  • VMware Workstation Pro 12

  Thumbs up!  VMware!

  

• Cannot install vmware player on windows 8 64-bit?

  Hello

  

  I'm trying to install vmware player 8 64-bit Windows, and I still get this problem even if I click Yes or no, nothing happened?

  can someone help me?

  Kind regards

  The questions is most likely the character in the temporary path to your username.  Change your folder environment variable a short path (for example, C:\Temp) without special characters, and then try again.

• Problem installing VMware Player

  I wanted to install VMware Player for some time, but whenever I tried to install it on my computer, I found a bug in the installation script.

  Immediately after you click 'Next' on the "Installation of VMware Player" screen, I get a "script error":

  > > > > > > > > > > > > > >

  An error has occurred in the script on this page.

  Line: 871

  7 tank

  Error: Expected ')'

  Code: 0

  URL: file:///C:/Users/Blank's%20Desktop/AppData/Local/Temp/vmware_1331872418/index.htm?lang=1033 & local = 1033

  > > > > > > > > > > > > > >

  After this error message, the installation hangs at this point.

  I use it on a Windows 7 desktop machine.

  Have experience you this problem?  What are my options for installation?

  I appreciate any help you can lend.

  Do yourself a huge favor and change the MS beast by default folder %TEMP%.  Remove the user folder-specific and TMP % environment variables so just leave the system those - who are the shortest paths and don't contain strange characters, which will often screw up installers.

  Hey Andy, the problem is that the .bundle file you have downloaded is not an ISO image. It's a self-extracting shell script, such as nVidia uses. You don't get her everything first. You just need to run it as sudo. So, (and I think it has instructions for how to do this in the place you downloaded the script .bundle?) just type "sudo sh./VMware-Player...bundle" (with the good name of file here) and who should run the shell script with sudo (elevated to the root) privileges. Please post again on this as to whether it solves your problem or not. HTH!

  After several minutes, I got this error (translated from Dutch, so it may not be the exact error and English):

  any package can be installed

  Maybe that osx el capitan is not compatible with my hardware

  I have the option to restart, but them the trial all repeats

  Ive been having problems with my Lightroom 6 (desktop only version - version installation CD), so I uninstalled. But now I can not re - install. Help, please.

  It seems that you try to install the version of Windows on your Mac, that will not work.

  I haven't used a DVD for installation of Age, but I would have thought that the Mac version would also be on the disk.

  I'm not a Mac person, but I think that the executable file would have the .dmg extension.

  Or you can download the latest version - 6.4 Lightroom - from here: keeping up-to-date for Lightroom

  I hope it works better the other link you tried.
