I recently tried to update my Workstation Pro V15.5.1 to V15.5.2.

[Yollidon]

After following through to Install, everything appeared to proceed until the error displayed in JPG 01 popped up.

Trying Retry or Ignore bought me back to the same pop-up. Choosing Cancel caused the install to roll back.

See GPG01: VMware Autherization service (VMAuthdService) could not be installed. Verify that you have privileges...

After the above install failed, returning to run the un-patched V15.5.1 bought up the errors seen in JPG 02 and 03.

Searching the Knowledgebase failed to find a fix.

See JPG02: The code execution cannot proceed because pcre.dll was not found. Reinstall program to fix problem.

and

JPG03: The ordinal 407 could not be located in <Program files> libcurl.dll

Anybody have any ideas? Thanks, Greg.

Hi,

Have you tried installing with administrative rights? (Run as administrator).

Or log into the computer with "local administrator" and run the installation.
