Cannot uninstall 5 to install 6. clueless.

I have a very, very, basic understanding of player.  Awhile ago I setup vmware player 5 and created a win 8 pro vm in it.  Everything worked fine.

 

Now player 6 comes out and I want to use that.  So i start up my vm in 5 and inside it use windows uninstall on players tools then shutdown that win 8 pro vm.

 

Next I use the win 7 ultimate host uninstall on player 5.  It starts, but quickly stops on a dialog saying "Running Processes Detected",  "Setup cannot configure network settings" and to close any network applet type processes.

 

I close several processes, including AV,  from Task Mgr that I thought could be even close, but that dialog keeps coming back when I hit retry.

 

I'm probably am not updating my player version right somehow.  Can anybody guide me on my path to version 6?

 

Thanks
