Problem of uninstall VMware Player

[dfhuku]

Actually my VMware Player cannot find SLES something and run. So I deleted away VMware Player program first that I not needed any more, after that I click Add or remove programs to remove VMware Player but can't be removed and get the dialog box message Error 1316. A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file C:\WINDOWS\Installer\VMware Player.msi when I click Ok the Time remaining reversed back and getting dialog box Fatal error during installation that I can't removed away successfully. What should I do in order to solve this problem?

Run the Player installer with the /c switch to cleanup the install/uninstall.

have you the same MD5Sum?

[dfhuku]

what you mean MD5Sum??? I not really understand.

Well, if you deleted the Player installer, there's not much more we can help you with. You might have luck using the VMware Cleaner (and other manual steps) found in knowledgebase article 1308.

Re: MD5 Sums--> On the download page for Player (and lots of other places around the 'net), are listed the MD5 checksums of each download file. You can run an MD5 check utility (I've got a pretty nice Windows one on my site - see profile for website) against the downloaded file, and compare the calculated checksum against the posted one. If they match, then your file is not corrupted and should be successful.

The VMware_Install_Cleaner.exe is attached at the bottom of the article

Another option is to just download the VMware Player again and use the installer /c option

Frpm Add and remove programs, VMware Player don't have remove button..

what should i do next to solve this??

[RDPetruska]

As we've said numerous times above: Run the installer with the /c switch!

[KevinG]

Did you try the following?

VMware-player-2.0.0-45731.exe /c

[dfhuku]

Now I only left VMware Player in Add or Remove Programs only and I already log in as Administrator account but when I launched add or remove programs and search for VMware Player here have not remove button even I download VMware Player 1.0.1 and install but still cannot solve the problem?

[KevinG]

Did you open a command prompt window and from the command line use the installer /c option to uninstall Player?????
