I installed the VMware player 4.0.1 update and now I cannot run any of my Linux guests. Get lots of permission errors, even though I have full control over the files and directories as user and administrator. So I look in the log file and find lots of error messages like the following:
2011-11-30T15:29:07.303+08:00| vmx| I120: ConfigDB: Failed to load C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware Workstation\config.ini

The problem here is that I am running WMware Player, NOT VMware Workstation.
The "VMware Workstation" folder is empty, the config.ini file is in the "VMWare Player" folder.
Anybody know how to fix this?????
