Uninstall reinstall VMWare player Fedora

This is sometimes required after a Kernel upgrade and the built in VMware player models update doesn't work.
simply uninstalling and reinstalling vmwareplayer makes it usable again.

vmware-installer -u vmware-player  


download latest VMware-player bundle

make executable

./VMware-Player-12.5.7-5813279.x86_64.bundle


vmwareplayer should now work again.
