    Has anyone ever fixed the vmwareplayer_x64.msi installation failed error? Assistance is greatly appreciated. The Vmware site insists that deleting all temp files and folders inside appdata local temp would surely do the trick but that does not appear to exist in windows 8. Please advise if possible.

    im pretty sure its in windows 8. did you do the organize folders and files, and view all hidden folders trick? that shows the app data folder. but im running win7 64x and im having problems creating a windows 64bit vm machine too. dont know if the first thing helped or not but it has been a pain not being able to work on a 64. :negative:
