VMware comes with a shell script named as .bundle. With this script all applications bundled with VMware will be installed. Unless a package manager is called from this script (which isn't) it will be done without the help of a package manager. Therefore our package managers can not help uninstalling the software.



However the installer that comes with VMware (vmware-installer) should have an option to uninstall components:



vmware-installer -h


To display all options you have with this program. Whether this will work, and if really all packages can be removed by this I don't know.



An example of how to remove the vmware-player is given at the Ubuntu Community Wiki:



sudo vmware-installer -u vmware-player


Also given there is a long list of things to do for a manual uninstall in case this fails.
