Now I've come across several simple things that should help me, but it didn't: remove vsphere client, install remote console and reinstall vsphere client; install with extra admin priviliges; Do a register workaround (enable HCmon, install, remove regkey). Failed to install the HCmon driver Workaround: Go to Task Manager, Services tab, and stop the VMUSBArbService. Then, proceed with installation.
