I'm feeling stuck. I've recently installed a new version of VMWare-Player (14.1.1) and it was working fine until now. When I want to start it, the whole OS just freezes, so I can't really debug it. I've tried uninstalling it using "vmware-installer --uninstall-component vmware-player", but it got stuck as well. I've found there is a process in "uninterrupted sleep" state:
17461 pts/1 Dl+ 0:00 /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-app-control -- -l /usr/lib/vmware
Here is what's in a log file:
$ cat /var/log/vmware-installer

Any advice is welcomed, maybe I can manually uninstall it somehow?
