VMWare workstation setup wizard ended prematurely - unable to install .

I'm trying to install VMWare workstation and install fails with error: VMWare workstation setup wizard ended prematurely - unable to install .

* From CMD/Powershell as admin ran vmic/product get name it shows an existing "VMware Workstation" line, when I tried to remove it I get:  ReturnValue = 1603 and it's still there.

* From programs/features there is nothing.

* There is no file in C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86) that references VMware Workstation.

* I removed files from regedit and I have already tried restarting my computer as well.

Try to clean all folders that references VMware Workstation and start again the process.

Which OS are you using?
