[Solved]Error with vmware

Hi, last day I tried to update the packages, but the operation failed due to the error

 :: the file /var/cache/pacman/pkg/pcsclite-1.9.5-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst is corrupted (the package is not valid or is corrupted (PGP signature)). 

I tried to remove the package pcsclite, but is a vmware's dependency, then I removed vmware and I was able to update my system's packages.

Now when I try to reinstall vmware with

paru -S vmware-workstation

it returns me the same error and the installation aborts.

Is there an another way to install vmware-workstation?

p.s. I tried virtualbox, but in my computer it consumes a lot of resources and the fans runs at full speed, instead vmware works fine

Re: [Solved]Error with vmware

Have you tried this ?
"Failed to commit transaction (invalid or corrupted package)" error

You could also possibly try out virt-manager, arguably the best. And will be light on your computer resources

Thank you very much, but the archwiki guide was not useful this time, but I solved with this two commands

sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys

sudo pacman-key --populate archlinux
