Welcome to the Community,

without any details about the VMware Workstation version you are using and the blog you read it's pretty hard to help. Anyway, the issue you mentioned was resolved with VMware Workstation 10.0.4 (see VMware Workstation 10.0.4 Release Notes), so in case you are running an older version it may be worth updating.

The path for config.ini is not correct. Read a vmware.log to see the path for your host.
