VMware Workstation Player 17 "Setup failed to create de VMware group on this system"

Hi, I can't install VMware Workstation Player 16.2 or 17 on an ASUS Zenbook 14 with Windows 11 Pro. The installation is interrupted and I get the message "Setup failed to create de VMware group on this system".

The characteristics of the computer are:
11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz 2.80 GHz
RAM 16.0 GB (15.7 GB usable)
Product ID 00330-80180-72372-AA291
System Type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Windows 11 Pro Edition
Version 22H2
Manufacturer ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.

I have tried disabling Windows Defender completely and running the installation as administrator.

Please could someone help me.
Thank you very much.
