I think the important line here is: Failed to execute child process "/etc/inid.d/vmware" (No such file or directory). Although the file exists. If I start VMWare as root, the same error occurs.

Edit: I also get this message during installation: No rc*.d style init script directories were given to the installer. You must manually add the necessary links to ensure that the vmware service at /etc/inid.d/vmware is automatically started and stopped on startup and shutdown.

Re: [SOLVED] [VMWare Workstation] Unable to stop services.

I guess I posted this question too early. Oh well.
I've set it up wrong the first time (pointed to /etc/rc.d instead of /etc/init.d). The problem is that I uninstalled it wrongly. Follow the steps on the Arch wiki. (I didn't do systemctl disable vmware.)
