After upgrade to 15.5.1 build-15018445 can not start VMs

After upgrading to version 15.5.1 build-15018445 when I try to start a virtual machine I get this error in Event Viewer: Version mismatch with vmmon driver: expecting 385.0, got 308.0. from the vmauthd service.  The service is also unable to be started manually.  Please advise.

I had the same problem.
Solved it by:
- start software installer of vmware

- select the repair option

- follow instructions of the installer
