OK, but are you actually at the stage of installing Windows 10? That is not what I meant previously.
If you are installing Windows 10 from ISO, forget the VMware Tools install at the same time (that's just confusing for me to try to do very different things at the same time, I don't know why it is even suggested).
So, just install your Windows 10, reboot and then when it is up and running go ahead and install VMware Tools. If everything works fine in Windows 10 (like screen resolution in a tolerable way), you can postpone VMware Tools install after you have installed all the Windows Updates or possibly an Upgrade.
When you have Win 10 computer running normally, you don't need to do anything specific for Tools install. Just follow the "pop-up" view, which may be minimized, in order to select the start of the install. I don't think the CD/DVD -setting matters at this stage - I certainly never have physical DVD or even virtual ISO, turned ON during normal use.
