Can't open VMware Workstation Pro 15

Hi there,

I downloaded VMware workstation pro a few days ago & I am not able to open it. When I try to, windows basically tells me that VMware Workstation Pro couldn't be run under windows and that I should look for updates. After a bit of research if found out that
this allegedly is because of a new windows-update, but I couldn't find any solutions.

So...does anyone know what this is all about and what I'm supposed to do?

Yours truly,

Sebastian

better solutions to fix rather than uninstalling the update....

Either reg fix or compatibility administrator tool

For compatibility administrator tool, only need to install 1st one on list and unselect the rest (only a 7.7Meg install)
