If you receive this error create a file named tools.config
put the following text into this file :

[logging]
log = true
# Enable tools service logging to vmware.log
vmsvc.level = debug
vmsvc.handler = vmx
# Enable new "vmusr" service logging to vmware.log
vmusr.level = error
vmusr.handler = vmx
# Enable "Volume Shadow Copy" service logging to vmware.log
vmvss.level = debug
vmvss.handler = vmx

then if your guest operation system is XP,2003 or 2000 move it to

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware Tools\tools.conf

if your guest operation system is Vista,Win7,Server 2008 etc. move it to

C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware Tools\tools.conf

if your guest is linux then move this file to

/etc/vmware-tools/tools.conf
