Workstation VM - Attempted to Suspend, Now Everything Greyed Out

$

Hello,

 

I was using a VM and tried suspended it - pressing the pause button like usual.

 

But it did not suspend and instead the yellow pause button went away, turned into a green play button and the VM is just working as usual.

 

Now everything is greyed out - the play button, the snapshot buttons, Send CTRL ALT DELETE....

 

Also under VM menu option, everything under VM -> Power and Snapshot are also greyed out.

 

What can I do - the VM is still running and I cant do anything since it is all greyed out.

 

Should I delete the contents of %appdata%\VMware folder (2 files – preferences.ini & inventory.vlms)

 

What can I do ?

 

Thank you.

 

------

 

UPDATE:  I right clicked the taskbar VMWARE icon and said to suspend every workstation and that works.  It suspended properly and then restarted properly with no grey outs.

 

Why did this happen ?  How can I prevent this in the future ?
