Fusion 6 cannot remove old version of VMTools (unable to find specified msi)

Upgraded from Fusion 4. Problem upgrading VMTools has arisen.

Reading around tried registry key renaming, renaming existing vmtools program folder, stopping services, manual uninstall via control panel, nothing has worked so far.

Cannot attach printers to Windows 7.

Mac osx 10.7.5 is host.

Hope someone can suggest a solution.

Regards

Mike

Update: VMTools installer stops the print spooler service, so at least by manually re-starting that service I can use my printers again.
