Probably your host computer is not running the system service "VMware Authorization Service" (vmware-authd.exe process).
You can check this in MyComputer -> Manage -> Services.
However this process should be started automatically. If not, try start it manually, event. restart your host computer.
If there are still errors (check system logs), there may be a problem with the installation of your Workstation.
You can try to reinstall it.

Before reinstalling workstation you could try reinstalling the service with;
"vnetlib -- uninstall authd"
"vnetlib -- install authd"
Execute it in VMware Workstation directory.
