and then in the services.msc list of services snap ins, make sure the following services are Started Automatically:
1. COM+ System Application
2. Distributed Transaction Coordinator
3. Volume Shadow Copy
4. VMware Physical Disk Helper Service
Automatically but not started:
1. Microsoft Software Shadow Copy Provider
2. VMware Snapshot Provider
This is the solution that i tried around myself without uninstalling the VSS Provider support in VMWare tools.
