Every time I run Vmware, I get this error: Error While powering on: The VMware Authorization Service is not running [closed]

Error While powering on: The VMware Authorization Service is not running.

To fix this error, I go to:

"Start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Services, clicked on VMware Authorization Service in the list & click the Start link on the left."

But I have to do this every time I want to use the Vitual Machine.

Does anyone know a permanent solution?

Uninstall VMware Workstation. Reboot the host machine and log in as a local administrator (not as a domain administrator). Reinstall VMware Workstation.

I resolved this by starting VMware Workstation as Administrator.
