Actual behavior

❯ vagrant up
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'vmware_desktop' provider...

Steps to reproduce

1. Use vagrant-vmware-desktop (3.0.2)
2. vagrant up
3. Revert back to vagrant-vmware-desktop (3.0.1), works

[EnorMOZ]

vmrun version 1.17.0 build-21581413

Usage: vmrun [AUTHENTICATION-FLAGS] COMMAND [PARAMETERS]

AUTHENTICATION-FLAGS
--------------------
These must appear before the command and any command parameters.

   -T <hostType> (ws|fusion)

Looks like player is not available ?

Tried

❯ /opt/vagrant-vmware-desktop/bin/vagrant-vmware-utility -v
1.0.22

Same results with it failing. Reverting the plugin back to 3.0.1 allows it to work again.

Can confirm I had the same issue when upgrading vagrant-vmware-desktop to 3.0.2 on macOS 13.3.1 (a) and it worked after reverting to 3.0.1

Hi there,

This is a duplicate of #78 and was fixed with #79. It was included in version 3.0.3 of the vagrant-vmware-desktop, so updating the plugin should resolve your issue.

Cheers!
