I've been having this issue for a couple of weeks now. I run Windows 7 in a Virtual Machine in Debian Linux with VMWare Player 5.0.2. A new version of Tools came out and I tried several times to install it but it gives me the error, "There was a problem updating a software component. Try again later and if the problem persists, contact VMware Support or your system administrator." It's a pretty vague message so it's hard to guess what the problem is. I started just cancelling it when I started Player but a while ago I decided to uninstall Tools from within Windows and attempt to install it again. I get the same error but now I'm without Tools at all. This is making it hard to play Starcraft. I would appreciate some help resolving this.
