VMWare Workstation MSI Failed Install Windows 7

This seems to be a quite common problem with many solutions.

From When installing VMware Workstation, the Setup window displays a blank screen.
To resolve this issue, you must replace certain files with the original version. To replace the files:

Open a command prompt and run these commands to re-register the necessary files :

32-bit version of Windows:

regsvr32 jscript.dll
regsvr32 vbscript.dll

64-bit version of Windows:

cd C:\windows\syswow64
regsvr32 C:\windows\system32\jscript.dll
regsvr32 C:\windows\system32\vbscript.dll

Restart Windows.

Other solutions may be to :

• run the installation from an empty folder (only the installation package should be there)
• make sure your AV does not block (better disable all antivirus and firewall)
• make sure there are no processes running like webcam.exe or fixcamera.exe
• run the installation package from the command line by adding /z action=install
• run the installation using "Run as administrator"
• go to registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones\ and delete a key L (make a backup first)

Or you can try this one:

• To uninstall any old version, go to C:\Windows\Installer
• Add the "Authors" column and sort by it
• One of the .msi files with have a "VMware" author
• Double-click it and follow through with the uninstall steps
• To install the new version, run cmd.exe as administrator and do:

cd install-file-directory
install-file.exe /e tempfolder
cd tempfolder
run the .msi file (vmware workstation.msi)

Have you done an MD5 hash on the ISO to make sure it isn't corrupted?
