VMware and its possible issues..

An error caused the resume operation to fail. Preserve the suspended state and correct the error, or discard the suspended state.`

This issue may occur when the VMware virtual machine is put to suspended state while your machine is shutting down.

To remove the suspend state from the virtual machine:
  1. Close VMware Workstation.
  2. Locate the virtual machine's folder. 
  3. Delete the .VMSS and .LCK, files.
  4. Open the .vmx (virtual machine configuration) file in a text editor. For more information, see  Editing the .vmx file of a VMware Workstation and VMware Player virtual machine (2057902)
  5. Find the line which starts with:

    checkpoint.vmState
  6. Remove everything between the quotation marks. It should look like:

    checkpoint.vmState = ""
  7. Save and close the .vmx file.
Warning: Deleting the suspend state has the same effect as performing a hard reset of the virtual machine, or pushing the Reset button on a physical computer, in that any unsaved data in open applications is lost.


 Unable to start the VM with the following error:-  The VMWare Authorization service is not running.


 
Solution:-  Go to services by typing services.msc in run panel and press enter. Restart VMWare Authorization Service and try again.
