Hello All,
I posted the following question to Microsoft guys, but the fellow at Microsoft support was 1000% sure that this issue is related to VMWare only. I am hoping to get some assistance at least here.
My question as below:-
Hello All,
NOTE: I have gone through many forums already and have followed all the steps recommended by different experts there. NO AVAIL! Hence, I am posting this here.
I have been trying to install VMWare Workstation 11 on my Windows 8.1 and I keep getting the MSI Error which says, "could not write value vmware-tray.exe to key \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows'CurrentVersion\Run. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel"
This is really very frustrating now. And I am beginning to hate Windows 8.1 :-(
I have disabled Anit-Virus, Windows Defender, Firewall ...everything possible. Tried to run the program as "Administrator", changed the permissions of all the HKEY related stuff under 'regedit" to "Full Control".... I did everything that was asked. Nothing happens. I keep getting the same error.
Please Please help!!!!
