Vmware Workstation 15 player for linux crashes when starting up

I installed a Vmware Workstation 15 player on Ubuntu 16.04 (I run a dual boot os with windows 10).

The Vmware crashes on any attempt to run Virtual Machine, have searched online and tried a couple of solutions

as running  Vmware from the terminal with the command:

      

        vmplayer /path/to/virtual machine.

I run into this error :

    

           I/O warning: failed to load external entity "/etc/vmware/hostd/proxy.xml"

With the Vmware not starting up.

The same problem occurs when i installed VMware workstation 15 player on my windows 10.

I have attached the Vmware log.
