Hello,
I recently purchased workstation 9. Until today everything was working fine but all of a sudden Shared VM feature stopped working.
I have tried reinstalling VM Wareworkstation and VMware WSX Server but no luck. I also checked all services in relation to VMware and all are running correctly.
Please refer attached screenshots for details.
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks much. 
OS Details:
Windows 7 x64
Intel i7 processor
