You can fix this by starting the service manually.

  1. Type services in the Windows search bar.
  2. Open Services; scroll to the VMware Authorization Service (should be close to the bottom of the page)
  3. Double-click to open the Properties page of the service.
  4. Change the startup type to Automatic and then start the service. That way, the service will be started automatically every time you log in.

I have a similar problem: I have to start manually this service once in a while. For those of you who have the same problem you can create a bat file and execute it when the service is not running (VMAuthdService service). This doesn't solve the problem, it's just a kind of workaround. The content of the file is the following:

:: BatchGotAdmin
:-------------------------------------
REM  --> Check for permissions
>nul 2>&1 "%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\cacls.exe" "%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\config\system"

REM --> If error flag set, we do not have admin.
if '%errorlevel%' NEQ '0' (
    echo Requesting administrative privileges...
    goto UACPrompt
) else ( goto gotAdmin )

:UACPrompt
    echo Set UAC = CreateObject^("Shell.Application"^) > "%temp%\getadmin.vbs"
    echo UAC.ShellExecute "%~s0", "", "", "runas", 1 >> "%temp%\getadmin.vbs"

    "%temp%\getadmin.vbs"
    exit /B

:gotAdmin
    if exist "%temp%\getadmin.vbs" ( del "%temp%\getadmin.vbs" )
    pushd "%CD%"
    CD /D "%~dp0"
:--------------------------------------

net start VMAuthdService

Name the file Start Auth VmWare.bat

I've also had this problem recently.

The solution that worked for me was to uninstall vmware, restart windows, and the reinstall vmware.

This problem was solved for me by repairing vmware with the run installer which fixed the services correctly.

I followed Telvin's suggestion and it worked on Windows 7:

  1. Run the VMware installer by right clicking on it and selecting "Run as Administrator"
  2. In the resulting popup menu, select "Repair installation"
