I've looked and looked (googled) for help on ending "VMware Tools Install" and noting seems to work.  I can't be the only one seeing this.

 

Please help.

 

I was able to find the following but it did not help at all.

 

cd /vmfs/volumes/[datastore]/[vmname]


vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms

2    vm-guest   [datastore vm-guest-folder/vm-guest.vmx   rhel6_64Guest   vmx-08

vim-cmd vmsvc/tools.cancelinstall 2
